The next contest in our marathon. Today we suggest you to determine the place on the map, which we riddled as a hokku, and make a screenshot of yourself at this place.

It had been several years since the survivors began to gather in the Valley. Ivy XO couldn’t even remember how many of them there had been. She always helped the newcomers, never counting their numbers or the amount of days she had been doing it. But the world is becoming more and more dangerous, and this fact cannot be ignored. So Ivy approached the faction leaders and asked for their help with building a new armoured vehicle for her. They responded and called out their best engineers.

You can view the panorama of the map here.

Back in the day, this town was a real oasis in the heart of the desert. Half of the population were fishers and the other half worked in an oil refinery. It seemed that not even the new virus called “Crossout” could destroy this order because of the settlement’s remoteness from the rest of civilization.

The illusions of safety were shattered by the military trying to hide from nuclear bombings in this very desert, right next to a fuel supply. Of course, the continental missiles didn’t manage to hit the military squads directly, but nuclear warheads are well-known for their long range. The good thing is that everything bad passes at some point, including radioactive poisoning.

We hope that many of you have had a chance to explore this location and have destroyed lots of enemies in the festive brawl! What do you think about this map? Would you like to see it in other modes? Or maybe you managed to find something unusual there? Share your impressions, thoughts and findings in the comments!

The “Crossout day” update was released just yesterday, and we already want to present to show you a couple of new parts that will appear in the Wasteland with the next update!

Attention! The update, like the parts mentioned in this news, has nothing to do with the new season and battle pass that are planned for the summer!

They belong to Alva, the daughter of Arbiter Petrolium, the main administrator of the battles in the Arenas. But, unlike her eccentric father, the girl who was raised by the Firestarters and then connected her life with occult knowledge, hints with her appearance alone that nothing good should be expected from meeting her.


For many years Alva wandered through impassable forests and swamps in attempts to temper her spirit. And every time the tree branches were entwined into a wall in front of her and the swamp seemed endless, a voice in her head urged her to keep going. As a reward for her persistence, the girl was given an armoured car, which proved that every obstacle in the way is merely an excuse to move faster towards her goal.


One would think that a weapon found in a swamp would unlikely be in a good condition. But the metal under the dirt was completely unaffected by corrosion and, once greased, “Varun” began to shoot faster than any crossbow Alva had ever seen. However, years of abandonment have made some adjustments to the weapon’s mechanism: after charging, the bowstring tension gradually loosens.

It would be interesting to read your guesses and suggestions in the comments: what kind of rarity and what kind of perks will these parts have? In the meantime, here’s a picture which is also somehow connected with the Alva’s appearance in the Valley.

Caligari and Ochre are already waiting for you at your range! Destroy your opponents in the updated brawl on the new map, collect all rewards of the festive event and don’t forget about the gift and special promotion! Let’s start celebrating “Crossout Day”!



Attention! The “Crossout day” event will last until June 1 inclusive!
[expand type=details]
This year, for the 7th anniversary of Crossout, we’ve updated the brawl that many enjoyed playing last year:

• “Crossout day” is a confrontation similar to the “Free for all” brawl, where the player has no allies. You are surrounded by enemies and you need you to destroy as many of them as possible!
  
• The battle takes place on a new map “Sand harbour”.
  
• Players take part in the battle on pre-prepared vehicles, sometimes highly unusual. All armored vehicles in battle are created by our players.
  
• This year, we’ve updated the list of blueprints for the brawl.
  
• The brawl also has respawns.
  
• After respawning, you can choose which vehicle you can choose the vehicle on which you will continue fighting: there will always be 3 random blueprints to choose from.
  
• The points are awarded for both shooting off parts and for destroying the enemy. The points for destroying the enemy are also added to the points for all parts that were mounted the enemy’s armoured vehicle at the time of destruction.

Each player will have access to a special event reward scale with levels for free:

• The level can be increased by completing the daily challenge to find the malfunctioning Caligari drones on the “Crossout day” brawl map.
  
• All uncompleted daily challenges on finding the drones accumulate. If you missed a few days, then you can easily complete several challenges at once.
  
• Leveling up rewards include: unique or rare cosmetic items, containers with resources and CKs, workbench coupons, storage expansions, workpieces, a structural part, range items and Engineer badges.

[/expand]

• Unique armoured car: “Accomplice”;
  
• Weapons: turret cannon “ZS-33 Hulk”, turret “DT Python”;
  
• Cabin: “Bear”;
  
• Unique character portrait: “Hog”;
  
• Unique sticker “Scavenger’s mark”;
  
• Unique paint can “Crust”;
  
• 650 in-game coins.
  
• Maximum number of parts increased to 50.

Everybody in the Valley knows that Scavengers are a part of the “Brotherhood” — a military organization that also includes Steppenwolfs. That’s why discipline and strict hierarchy are highly important and beneficial for Scar AB’s people. Like a strict hierarchy. But every career ladder has a downside — its first steps. Hog has joined the Scavenger ranks just recently, but he has already proven himself to be a responsible worker in the field of finding the useful “junk” and protecting it from hostile gangs. Scar would gladly promote the rookie, but “he has just started working here”. Good thing that Hog is a professional mercenary who is only interested in his reward, and Scavengers always pay their debts.


Attention! The Gift pack will be available to everyone who logs into the game from May 19 at 06:00 GMT to June 1 at 23:59 GMT!

• Unique armoured car: “Survivor”;
  
• Cabin “Fury”;
  
• 2 autocannons “AC43 Rapier”;
  
• Hologram “Crosshairs”;
  
• A paint can “Commotion”;
  
• Sticker “Magnificent seven”;
  
• Unique character portrait “Julius”;
  
• Background and logo for profile customization.

We are launching a special promotion during which:

• You will be able to freely switch between the in-game factions.
  
• Part production will be instant (you will still need to claim the finished parts from the workbenches).
  
• The amount of free respawns in raids will be increased from 1 to 2.

Please note:

• The promotion will be available from May 19, 06:00 GMT, to June 2, 05:00 GMT.
  
• Free transition between factions will be available immediately if you have not changed your faction the day before the promotion started. If you have already switched between factions, then you need to wait until the timer expires;
  
• All parts that were in production before the promotion started will be manufactured for the allotted time. Instant production will be active only for those parts, the production of which was launched after the start of the promotion.

With this update, all players will receive pleasant bonuses, the contents of which will depend on how long you’ve been fighting in the Wasteland world. The more years you have been with us, the more significant the bonus will be because you will not only receive the gift that is based on your time in the game, but all the previous gifts as well!

You can get your bonus while the “Crossout day” event is active.
