Forget codenames; this season goes straight to the thrilling title. Expect a focus on robberies, complete with the typical arsenal and targets.
Launching February 21st, the season will include a major crossover with Mortal Kombat. Sub-Zero will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the heist theme.

This collaboration coincides with the marketing push for Mortal Kombat 2, the upcoming film starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.
Skins will be priced at 1,500 V-Bucks each.
Returning weapons include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain unannounced, speculation based on previous heist-themed seasons points to potential returns of the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler. These are currently unconfirmed.
A significant addition is the Smart Building feature, which anticipates your building needs based on aiming direction.
Gameplay will also see a change, replacing keycards with vault breaches. Players will utilize Meltanite, a thermite-like substance, to access the vaults and their rewards.
