Forget codenames; this season dives straight into the action with gun-toting villains, gold-laden getaway vehicles, and explosive bank vaults. The Battle Pass will feature skins reflecting this high-stakes robbery theme.
A major highlight is the collaboration with Mortal Kombat, introducing Sub-Zero as a playable character within the Battle Pass. This tie-in complements the upcoming Mortal Kombat 2 movie.
Skins will be priced at the standard 1,500 V-Bucks each.

Returning weapons include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. Speculation abounds regarding the potential return of other fan favorites like the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler, though these remain unconfirmed.
A significant gameplay addition is "Smart Building," a predictive system that anticipates your building needs based on your aiming direction. The heist theme also introduces vault breaches, replacing keycards. Players will utilize Meltanite, a thermite-like substance, to access the vaults and their rewards.
