HOLIDAY HAVOC
AVA's December update includes a new mode, new items in the store, and a host of improvements and fixes.Read on for a preview of the update’s contents:
New Mode: Dirty Knife
Dirty Knife is an individual match mode where you stay in as long as you want to keep fighting; there’s no match duration or kill requirement. Each player starts with a melee weapon, but can obtain more items at random during play, or by killing enemy players.
Ammunition is in short supply, but as you play you’ll unlock various “buff levels” that improve your odds of survival. Once you hit level 4, you have one minute to escape. If you make it, you win!
Fortune Stars Season 8
Season features weapons from the top-secret ARGUS Project (an initiative whose goal was to create the world’s most perfect firearms), including the ARGUS 556 Commando.
Each time you purchase a Fortune Stars weapon, you advance up the rewards ladder, gaining additional rewards at steps 2, 3, 6, and 9.
New Capsules
The following items are being added to the AVA Store:
