The new season expands the game\u2019s content lineup with the DMZ: Recon Quick Play mode, the MX Guardian shotgun, and the Tactical Mirror Battle Royale class, alongside limited-time events and cosmetic rewards.<\/p>\n

DMZ: Recon Quick Play Debuts<\/h4>\n

Season 3 introduces DMZ: Recon Quick Play, a faster version of the extraction mode set on Serpent Island.<\/p>\n

The mode places up to four squads into a condensed area covering the island\u2019s northern points of interest, including Kurohana Base, Observatory, Port, Residential, and the Kurohana Ship.<\/p>\n
