In this hotfix we've addressed multiple bugs that have been reported by the community over the past several weeks. Please continue to submit any bugs that you find using the bug report form found at https://forms.gle/zNQ8VhjH7LvvaMt17 or email us at support@xeragame.com.
As a reminder, using and abusing bugs and not reporting them to the development team and is a banable offense and violates the code of conduct and is considered cheating. Those who continue to abuse bugs without reporting them will be subject to bans going forward. Players who are banned will have their accounts and bases wiped if found to be abusing bugs. This includes bases that are exploited.
With this patch, we have also completed a cleanup process to remove approximately 100,000 inactive base parts.

We appreciate your patience as we completed the transition between seasons! We are excited to announce that Season 6 is now available and patch 1.1 is now available to download!
With the release of Season 6, there have been massive changes to the way base raiding and looting works. All weapons now have a specific weapon level assign which will determine the damage output for each gun. The higher the weapon level, the more base damage it is capable of doing! For raiding, we have also introduced a stability system to allow for easier raiding along with other balancing.
There's so much to talk about, for this season and we have a ton more to come. Be sure to check out the patch notes below for all of the changes that have been made for the start of the new season.
For Season 6, please be sure that if you encounter any bugs that they are immediately reported to staff via the following link - https://forms.gle/zNQ8VhjH7LvvaMt17. For all bug reports, please ensure you are providing video, screenshots, and steps to reproduce the bug so that our team can quickly reproduce and fix it. Do not spread information regarding bugs you encounter as we want to fix any bugs that might be abused to ensure that everyone is playing fair.

As you may already know, Season 5 is coming to a close and this is your final call before we prepare for the launch of Season 6 which is anticipated to be some time this weekend.
In preparation for the transition and wipe for Season 6, all servers will be taken offline at approximately 7pm CST on Saturday May 21st. We anticipate the transition may take up to 48 hours from the time the servers go offline, however we are making our best effort to have everything up and running much sooner than that.
As a reminder, all Season 5 skin crate purchases, level boost purchases and season pass redemptions must be claimed prior to the servers being taken down. Level boosts for anyone looking to finish out your season pass are available in game to be purchased with X-Coin.
Any rewards that have not been claimed will not be able to be claimed after the servers go down.
We wanted to take a moment to update everyone on the status of Season 6. As had been mentioned, one of our key team members has come down with covid and as such, the final preparations for the release of Season 6 had to be stopped while they are recovering. We understand that a delay is not what everyone had hoped for, however the recovery of our team member is the most important thing and we hope that everyone understands the situation was something that is beyond our control.
At this time, we anticipate that the release of Season 6 along with the end of season wipe should be in approximately 1-2 weeks, depending on how long it takes to wrap things up once everyone is back to work. If we anticipate any further delays, we will be sure to post information in the announcements channel of our discord.
We have enabled Double/Triple XP for all players that will last until the end of Season 5. Also as a reminder, all season pass rewards must be redeemed before the end of the season.
Also in preparation for the upcoming wipe, we want to remind everyone that at the end of every season, there will be a full wipe of all in game items, currency, bases, levels, missions and GI. The only thing that will not wipe at the start of the new season will be your skins, skin crates, and X-Coin.

Double XP weekend returns for everyone April 8th through April 11th! As a special bonus, Premium Season Pass holders will receive Triple XP!
