- Snowy Vale: Looking for a break from all the action? Snowy Vale is a non-combat zone where you can’t harm other players. It's the perfect place to chill, take photos, and celebrate those hard-earned wins.
- Mammoths and Tigers: Yes, you read that right. You can now ride mammoths with your squad or hop onto a tiger for faster movement and the ability to jump over obstacles. The Mammoth can carry your entire squad, so expect some fun and chaotic moments as you roam the map on this Ice Age beast.

New Tactical Gear: Sphere, War Hammer, and Portals
This update isn’t just about new locations. It’s also bringing in some game-changing gear:
- Sphere: This new item lets you create a protective shield around yourself, offering a tactical advantage during heated battles.
- War Hammer: This utility item allows you to create ice walls for cover during fights. Whether you’re shielding yourself or setting up a sneaky ambush, it’s a creative new way to stay one step ahead.
- Portals: Use the Dragon Horn to open a portal to the Dragon Slayer world, where you’ll find high-tier loot and the chance to battle a dragon. Teamwork is crucial here, so make sure your squad is well-equipped and ready for a fight.
