Where It All Began – the Closed Beta Breakout
[p]In May 2024, our closed test surprised the shooter looter community. No crosshair, real gear loss on death, tangible risk: that was the first public glimpse of Arena Breakout: Infinite. After more than a year of polish, we can finally announce that Arena Breakout: Infinite arrives on Steam on 15 September. If you have not tried it yet, give us the next few minutes to win you over.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/c3c49cbee9a9176525498757d1c479c2a720e842.gif"][/img][/p]The Road to Full Release
[p]We kept listening to our community. One year later, the Steam Full Release lands with no more Koen purchasing option, red-tier ammo removed from market, and the strongest helmets and vests now craft-only. Our anti-cheat system has been updated 4,516 times, resulting in an 81.7% reduction in detected cheaters. HD visuals, smoother controls, larger maps, dynamic weather, and numerous other optimizations make Arena Breakout: Infinite the best it has ever been.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/3131f56331141cea2e1dac558b5bb9039bc55c83.gif"][/img][/p]More Than Just Another Shooter
[p]Unlike most shooters, Arena Breakout: Infinite isn't focused on kill counts or battle-royale rankings. You enter a sealed zone with your own gear, search for loot, collect trophies, and extract alive. Winning a fight doesn't guarantee success; only extraction does. Every enemy you encounter is another player risking all their belongings just like you.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/009ad3f0da1f85f7282f11c1df906d9dc752e5b7.gif"][/img][/p]Pay-to-Win? Not Any More
[p]As our game continues to evolve, we are refining both its economy and balance. Resource acquisition now relies entirely on gameplay and effort: the gold-purchasing system has been fully closed. Likewise, red-tier ammo and the best armor & helmet will only be obtained through crafting or battlefield encounters, no longer through market trade. Arena Breakout: Infinite aims to ensure that every achievement reflects real strategy and dedication, bringing gear and wealth back to the true challenge and enjoyment of the game. This is a world where victory is defined by judgment and courage, not by shortcuts.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/a0da52522b96c87c292c3536df5aa223c113c334.jpg"][/img][/p][p] [/p]Realism with Purpose
[p]Players love Arena Breakout: Infinite for the subtle systems that reveal themselves over time.[/p][p]Rain drowns out footsteps. After losing a skirmish, dive into the downpour and slip away while pursuers hear nothing but rain.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/e02a5218d93d018a131b2a3bb2a13e9fc55621b2.gif"][/img][/p][p]Fog wipes the far horizon. A squad caught in a tightening noose can use the haze to pivot, flank, and escape what looked like a sure wipe.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/a6da0debcd015c143d6e115bf9b2ac1bd6da12bf.gif"][/img][/p][p]Sunlight betrays the careless. At certain hours, a low sun stretches your shadow around corners, casting a shadow on anyone watching the wall.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/44984203/cee0053b66c213fe2e4ee38749e3f3b0a3d66496.gif"][/img][/p][p]Sound is pure intel. You can tell if an enemy upstairs is reloading or popping painkillers in the kitchen.[/p][p]Gears such as Life sensors, grenades, and masks are built for results, not flash. Plan ahead, fire only when it matters, and walk out rich.[/p][p] [/p]Five Distinct Maps
