The Fjord + Impact Grenade Update | v0.25.60

Prepare to defend or arm objectives on our brand-new Rush map Fjord, equip and throw the new Impact Grenade, rebind your keys, play in a different language, and sport your support for the game with Forefront’s Supporter Pack DLC. New update, available NOW! Find out more details in our Discord and read the full changelog below!

New Rush Map: Fjord!

Our Rush gamemode is getting some more love with a brand-new map. Welcome to Fjord as the war for Red Orpiment escalates! This snowy island is home to a secret base operated by the Orpiment Renewable Energy Group. As Coalition forces arrive to sweep the grounds, these once-quiet hills will soon turn red.

Introducing, the Impact Grenade!

The Assault class gets a new Impact Grenade to throw into the fight. As the name suggests, this grenade will explode on impact instead of rolling or bouncing off walls or surfaces. Your opponents, as well as certain destructible environments better watch out. Let us know what you think!

Show Your Support with the Supporter Pack DLC!

The Forefront Supporter Pack is filled with an exclusive selection of cosmetic rewards for players to represent their support inside the game. It offers an optional way for players to further support the team making one of their favorite games. Everything in this DLC pack is simply cosmetic and has no effect on gameplay. Purchasing this bundle supports the team behind Forefront and helps us continue development on more content as we not only approach our full release, but also what comes after. The Supporter Pack DLC includes:

• Three Weapon Charms: Bullet, ORE, and Coalition

• Two Weapon Patterns that work on every weapon: Topographic and Orpiment Fracture

• Scoreboard Supporter Icon

• "Special Support Unit" Killcard

• Discord Supporter Role through Account Linking

• Our Heartfelt Thanks and Gratitude for further supporting our game and studio

As always, let us know what you think about the game, and the update in our Discord. We’re always looking forward to your feedback. Cheers, and see you in the game! -TF
