Today, developer Team Jade has announced that their largest title update for their ongoing free-to-play first-person shooter title ‘Delta Force’ will land on the 9th of July. In addition to this, the developer will be launching Delta Force on Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 consoles on the 19th of August, with store pages going up on the 28th of June for wishlisting.
During their Developer Stream, they showed Season “Break”, which will introduce two new maps across the Operations and Warfare game modes:
- New Operations Map: Tide Prison
- A secret high-tech island prison run by the Haavk, players must infiltrate disguised as prisoners and collect their gear during the mission, solving puzzles solo or with their squad. Swimming and diving have also been introduced, together with underwater exploration.
- New Warfare Map: Cyclone
- A tropical island with a hidden ICBM missile site, the Cyclone is a grand map offering satisfying infantry and vehicle combat and introduces a dynamic weather system which affects gameplay immersion and strategy.
And we get a new operator by the name of Tempest, of which comes free with the game’s Battle Pass. Tempest comes with enhanced mobility via an exoskeletal device, emergency evasion devices, and a charged drill that disarms enemies, making her an ideal choice for close range combat and deadlocks.
Plus, we get new weapons and vehicles and improvements to Victory Unite, which includes a real-time command hub and a new call-in support to reduce respawn time. Swimming and diving snorkel their way into the game, too.
*UPDATED* Last, but not least, a brand-new collaboration with Hypergryph yields players a Delta Force & ‘Arknights’ collaboration. Arknights-inspired Operator Appearances will begin on the 9th of July and Team Jade showed off Stinger’s Executor-themed Appearance, inspired by the Titleless Code outfit, and Luna’s Schwarz-inspired Appearance, based on the Skyline design. Toxik and Hackclaw will also join the lineup, with full reveals making their way over the coming weeks.
Alongside paid skins, players will also be able to get their own free Amiya-themed weapon skin, calling card, spray paint, the whole works.
For the other two characters whose skins don’t quite have renders for us to use yet, check out below for an idea of what’s to come + check out the YouTube video here for the full trailer.
Delta Force is currently available on PC via Steam/Delta Force’s launcher as well as mobile devices (iOS, Android via Google Play) and will soon make their way to consoles in August. More details on the console launch will come down the line. Arknights is a free-to-play gacha tower defence title developed by Hypergryph and published by Yostar, available on PC via Google Play Games, iOS, and Android via Google Play.
