Aliens Are Coming

The Foreshadowing Quests have gone live, which sees players find telescopes across the map, as well as find a downed helicopter.

It has also been leaked that aliens will be coming to the game and will play a large role in each match, with aliens abducting up to 20 players and teleporting them to a different part of the map.

It hasn't been leaked whether this will take place before the end of Season 6 or will be a new mechanic for Season 7.

HYPEX has revealed that we won't be getting a Season 6 event, but possibly a Season 7 intro event like we saw in Season 6, but will see hints at aliens in the lobby leading up to the new season.
