In this release, the Wildcard Contract has undergone further adjustments as we plan to run them again and continue our experiment around separate contracts. Players who choose the Wildcard option will be placed on a random map and will only encounter single Boss Targets during nighttime. Furthermore, players will only have the option to play against trios to help streamline waiting times. In addition, the Wildcard Contract now offers an increased Bounty Bonus of 300 per extracted token!
Full details of the Wildcard Contract Experiment will be posted later today.

As you know, we have been experimenting with the “Night” Time of Day Wildcard Contract since the release of Update 1.12. On Monday April 10th at 07:00 UTC, we will be switching back to the single random Contract, and the Night maps will be integrated back into the random rotation as it was prior to Update 1.12.
We plan to keep experimenting with the Wildcard Contract over the coming weeks, and will keep you informed on when it will return to the Live server Contract rotation.
