Arena Breakout: Infinite

Arena Breakout: Infinite received a live update on July 30, 2026 at 03:00 UTC, requiring players in an active raid to exit and manually trigger the update through the launcher before rejoining.

What changed

Bug fixes

  • The Legacy Knife now displays its switch animation while sprinting, and its sheathing animation can be interrupted to chain follow-up attacks.
  • A misplaced character icon after elimination has been corrected.
  • Several exploit paths granting access to unusual locations on the Airport and Armory maps have been closed.
  • Non-interactable containers on the Airport map are now usable.
  • An AI enemy right-peeking from cover will now appear on screen where they actually are — a meaningful fix for anyone trading shots near walls.
  • Voice lines for the Federal Agent and Crimson Espionage operator skins were playing incorrectly when the second face model was selected; this is resolved.

Improvements

  • Character facial textures render better under certain graphics settings.
  • Gameplay guidance for Hostile Sector: Solo Infiltration has been expanded.
  • Players attempting to enter a raid while carrying expired items will now see a clearer notification.

Balance and content adjustments

  • The Koen entry requirement for TV Station Melee-Only Combat rises from 150,000 to 200,000.
  • Airport Supplies Drops settlement multipliers increase substantially: first place moves from 1.4× to 2.0×, second place from 1.2× to 1.5×.
  • The Assault Dagger: Resident Evil Ver. receives changes to blade orientation, model scale, base damage, and armor damage — though the source text for that final item is truncated.

The reward multiplier changes make Airport Supplies Drops noticeably more lucrative for top performers, while the map-exploit closures and AI peeking fix address two of the more friction-heavy competitive concerns.
