  • Core Gameplay & Features

    • Battle at the Ruins, Defend the Core

      Team up with up to 3 friends and drop into the ruins of the research institute. Defend against 6 waves of increasingly powerful mutated beast hordes!

      Your goal

      protect the "Beast Bone Core" from being corrupted by special collars, and destroy the enemy's special war machines. Each wave includes 3 minutes of intense combat + 1 minute of downtime, keeping the action fast-paced and adrenaline-pumping!

    • Highlighted Threats, Dynamic Defense: Golden-highlighted "special collar carriers" will randomly spawn on the battlefield, guiding hordes to charge the core. Prioritize focusing fire on them! If dropped collars are picked up by other creatures, they will mutate and evolve, creating continuous pressure.

    • In-match upgrades, Thrilling Power Growth: Earn "Beast Soul Coins" by slaying monsters. During breaks, spend coins to massively upgrade your character's [Firepower, Survivability, Skills]! Discover special items and surprise cards. Achieve specific combos to activate game-changing "Ultimate Buffs" and experience the satisfaction of evolving from struggling survivor to unstoppable force!

    • Tactical Roles, Unique Playstyles: 12 Valiant each have distinct battlefield roles. Heavy DPS (Tiger/Panda/Bear), Mobile Skirmishers (Meerkat/Fox/Crocodile), Team Support (Rabbit/Cat)... Build a balanced squad and develop your own unique strategy for victory.

    • Final Challenge: The last wave will feature multiple "Core-Contaminated Tank" and elite monsters attacking simultaneously! This is the ultimate test of your squad's DPS and coordination—pour all your firepower into the fight!

BOT Experience Optimization - Applicable Modes: WA RAID, WA CONQUEST(Effective in Custom Rooms)

Combat Behavior and Movement Performance Optimization

  • Intelligent Engagement Range: BOTs can now determine the optimal firing timing based on the weapon's "damage falloff distance." They will proactively move into the weapon's best effective range before initiating attacks and attempt to close in on players during engagements.

  • Dynamic Movement BehaviorFixed the issue where all BOTs excessively strafed side-to-side (peeking) while firing. BOT movement now varies according to difficulty settings, with "Beginner" difficulty BOTs showing more stationary firing behavior.
  • Movement Physics Optimization:

    • BOTs will smoothly decelerate when making sharp turns while sprinting, eliminating the unnatural instant-turning motion.

    • BOT tactical sprints are now limited by stamina, preventing infinite sprinting.

    • Randomized startup reaction time has been added when BOTs decide to perform tactical sprints, making their behavior more closely resemble real players.

▌🔧 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a crash issue when the Snow Leopard – Anthea was randomly selected in Random Deathmatch mode.

Thank you, Wild ones, for your continued support and passion for Wild Assault. Equip your new gear and unleash hell in "Feral Relic Defense Line-EASY"! Wishing you all an exciting time in the game!!
