Limited Open Test 2 Feature Reveal

AnnouncementWiA

Limited Open Test 2 runs January 26th through February 6th with 5,000 player slots available.

What started as a passion project has grown into something much bigger. With over 450,000 DevLog views and 50,000+ sign-ups from our community alone, your feedback has shaped every update we've made. Now, as we gear up for our second Limited Open Test, we're excited to pull back the curtain on the new features you'll be getting your hands on.

Here's everything coming to Limited Open Test 2.

Limited Events: Earn Rewards on Your Schedule

Our new Limited Events system gives you a structured way to unlock exclusive cosmetics through gameplay.

How It Works:

Complete missions during matches to earn Event XP. That XP feeds directly into whichever event you've set as your primary focus. You can join multiple events simultaneously, but only one can be active at a time, letting you prioritize what matters most to you.

Each event features 5 reward tiers to unlock as you progress. Events run on a limited timer, giving you a window to earn free cosmetics through standard play. If you choose to unlock the premium reward track, you'll retain access to those rewards even after the event timer expires, so there's no pressure to grind.

Missed an event? We'll be running encore events periodically, giving you another shot at both free and premium rewards.

New Feature: Sprays

Express yourself beyond the battlefield. Sprays let you leave your mark, whether that's setting up tactical callouts for your squad, celebrating a clutch play, or just leaving something for the enemy team to admire on their respawn screen.

Equip up to 6 sprays and deploy them using the same intuitive system as our ping controls. Hold the spray wheel, drag to the one you want, release to lock it in. Tap Spray and it goes on whatever surface you're looking at.

You can have up to 5 sprays active in a match at once. Place a new one and the oldest gets replaced. Everyone sees your sprays, and your selection stays saved between sessions.


Custom HUD: Rebuilt from the Ground Up

Our original custom layout system served us well, but the mobile FPS space has evolved. Players expect more control, more options, and more flexibility. So we went back to the drawing board.

What's New:

  • Multiple Layout Saves - Save up to 3 different control schemes and swap between them. More slots coming in future updates.
  • Expanded Joystick Options - Choose from multiple joystick styles including floating point configurations to match your playstyle.
  • Granular UI Editing - We've broken down HUD elements into individually adjustable components. Reposition your weapon swap buttons, health and armor bars, and more with precision control.

This isn't a patch. It's a complete rebuild designed to give you the level of customization that competitive mobile players deserve.
