Hi everyone,
Power Week is coming to APB Reloaded!
From Friday, July 24 through Friday, July 31, players can take advantage of increased rewards, faster progression, and a week-long discount across the ARMAS Marketplace.
Before we get into the schedule, we also want to acknowledge a couple of recent issues that affected your experience in San Paro. Bugs within the matchmaking system prevented some players from consistently receiving appropriate matches, and the Sirocco Mirage Kit was released later than intended, after its accompanying sale had already ended.
We know both situations were frustrating, and we appreciate everyone who remained patient while we worked through them. As a thank-you to the community, we’re introducing Power Week with several progression bonuses and a discount across the ARMAS Marketplace.
Throughout Power Week, different bonuses will become available on select days, giving you more opportunities to level up your contacts, build up your cash reserves, earn Joker Tickets, and progress your Weapon Roles.
Power Week Schedule
Friday, July 24 – Monday, July 27: Extra Contact Standing
Tuesday, July 28: Extra Cash
Wednesday, July 29: Extra Joker Tickets
Thursday, July 30: Double Weapon Role Progression
Friday, July 31: Extra Contact Standing
Whether you’re working toward your next contact level, saving up for a new purchase, collecting Joker Tickets, or unlocking Weapon Role rewards, there will be something worth jumping in for throughout the event.
15% Off ARMAS
Power Week also brings a 15% discount across the ARMAS Marketplace from July 24 through July 31.
Browse weapons, clothing, vehicles, account upgrades, and more while the discount is active. The sale will remain available for the full duration of the event, so you’ll have all week to decide what to pick up.
Start the event with four straight days of Extra Contact Standing, take advantage of a different bonus each day throughout the week, and return on Friday for one extra day of Extra Contact Standing followed by our regularly scheduled Extra Contact Standing weekend.

Pistol Changes Walkthrough
This patch ships a large number of experimental pistol changes following a new design approach, these were tested and iterated on with the help of our testing team over the last month and we're now at the point where we feel confident in trying these out on the Live servers to gather more feedback and see how this new approach affects the meta in the ways we're hoping it will. Before we head into the details we wanted to take the time to go over what prompted this design approach.
The Colby .45 has been at the top of the Secondary Meta for an extremely long time for good reason, it is supposed to be one of the best if not the best secondary in the game within short to medium ranges should the user have the required skill to consistently utilize its strengths despite its glaring weaknesses of high recoil, low magazine capacity and poor accuracy when firing as soon as you come out of sprint. We have seen the constant feedback about the Colby .45 feeling overpowered when playing against players who mastered the weapon but because of the effort and consistency required to make the Colby .45 be this strong our design approach was to bring other pistols up to par and able to beat the Colby .45 but not as versatile to ensure that players who mastered the Colby .45 are still rewarded for their mastery of the gun. This also directly influenced the design of the Joker M9 which was supposed to be a a direct counter to the Colby .45 in close range scenarios, giving players yet another alternative to combat the Colby .45.
The Joker M9 was a final attempt to balance around the Colby .45 AP to see if there is going to be a decrease in negative feedback about the Colby .45's power and following the release of Legends and the Joker M9 becoming available to all players via regular contact progression it quickly became apparent that this design approach is not working as it created a scenario in which there was negative feedback about both the Colby .45 AP as well as the Joker M9 with users from both ends being unhappy about the state of the other weapon.
Following this increase in negative feedback and many community suggestions including extensive discussions in our testing community we started working on an experimental balance pass that addresses the issue of Secondary weapons being too powerful and often working well enough within closer ranges to consistently beat out primary weapons that are designed to perform best in close range.
All of the changes below are experimental, we will be monitoring the situation closely and make changes based on further feedback or even fully revert changes and go back to the drawing board should this approach not work out either. We also understand that many of these will throw off years of muscle memory but our hope is that these changes will diversify the Secondary meta whilst also allowing Close range weapons more freedom to exist.

The streets of San Paro are heating up this Memorial Day with a brand new ARMAS sale and fresh customization bundles to expand your wardrobe.

But that's not all.
Alongside the Memorial Day Sale, we also have two brand new account-wide clothing bundles inspired by the Legends update and the streets of San Paro.
Suit up, hit the streets, and make your mark during the Memorial Day Sale before it disappears on May 28th.
And don’t forget, that our CEO Matt Scott will once again be hosting a live AMA on Saturday, May 23rd at 6 PM UTC. Join us on Discord to ask questions, talk about the future of APB, and hang out with the community!

The streets of San Paro are evolving. The Legends update has officially arrived, bringing a massive expansion to APB Reloaded. With an increased rank cap, the introduction of long-awaited contacts, new weapons, a suite of tactical gear, and even a minor map update, this update marks a significant milestone for the APB Reloaded community.
New Blood in Financial: Zombie & LaRocha
Progression has been blown wide open with the arrival of two iconic contacts: Zombie and LaRocha. These power players are now active in the Financial District, offering Enforcers and Criminals alike the chance to push their careers further than ever before.
Rank Cap Increase: The maximum level has been raised to Rank 290, providing veterans with new goals and rewards.
Contact Rewards: Working with Zombie and LaRocha grants access to a formidable localized arsenal, including:
FAR NFCP 2 & SWARM NFCP 2
Joker M9 & OCA ‘Silverado’
SBSR Coroner ‘Terminus’ / ‘Lenda’
ISSR-A ‘Adeen’ (Available as a Rare Daily reward)
Tactical Evolution: Weapons & Mods
The combat meta is shifting with the introduction of high-tier weaponry and a brand-new grenade.
The Joker C9S ‘Prototype’: A new Legendary variant enters the fray, offering a unique edge for players looking to dominate close-quarters engagements with a rare, high-performance loadout.
EMP Grenade: Unlocking at Grenadier Rank 3, the EMP Grenade is a game-changer. Designed to disable vehicles and electronic systems, it provides a necessary counter to vehicle-heavy strategies and tech-reliant opponents.
Customization and Performance: New Modifications
Fine-tune your performance with a fresh batch of modifications for both weapons and vehicles. Whether you prioritize stability or mobility, these additions offer deeper specialization:
Steady Sight & Improved Ironsights for precision handling
Lightweight Frame & Steering Angle Tuning for superior vehicle control
Fortified Electronics to harden your assets against disruption
Expanding Your Empire: Inventory & Presets
San Paro is about style as much as it is about skill. This update introduces the Han Coywolves ‘Mischief’ and ‘Authority’ presets to refresh your look. To accommodate the growing list of gear, inventory limits have been increased across the board.
Players can now store more weapons, clothing, vehicles, songs, and themes than ever before. New clothing items will continue to roll out via ARMAS in the weeks following the Legends launch.
Quality of Life & Gameplay Balance
To ensure a smoother competitive experience, several key adjustments have been implemented:
Map Balancing: The building complex near the Financial skatepark has been adjusted to improve flow for attacking teams
Joker Store Update: The Golden OPGL is now available for purchase with Joker Tickets
Weapon Tuning: All SBSR weapons have been transitioned to semi-automatic fire
Inventory Management: Players can now delete and repurchase unlocked grenades, simplifying loadout organization
Legends will go live on March 27, 2026, with maintenance beginning at 12:00 PM UTC.
Gear up, contact your new handlers, and get back in the game to claim your place among the elite of San Paro.

Hello everybody, We’re long overdue for an update, so as we close out 2025, here an overview of what has been going on behind the scenes.
Networking Update
Late October was a rough month for APB: Reloaded in terms of Networking, so starting November we’ve made the rough decision to swap providers (again) in an effort to stabilize the game so all of you could play without being affected by massive attacks on the old provider’s network unrelated to APB.
For the most part, the initial migration process went smoothly and didn’t come with all too many hiccups. But since November, we have had intermittent issues. As of mid December, we have resolved most of the issues. At this point, we are now just waiting for the last pieces to fall to optimize and improve the overall player experience. We are upgrading routing in some regions which should help with Players having packetloss, and we are bringing the NA East region back online.
In his last AMA, Matt promised to compensate players for all the downtime. We have been waiting for everything to stabilize enough to run a “Compensation Event”.
We’re finally there, and we’re going big. No messing around with Joker Tickets. Just straight extra G1C for you guys.
Running from the 18th of December until the 7th of January players can play up to 100 Missions or Minigames to rack up an extra 1500G1C which will be awarded in the weeks after the Event has ended. To help with tracking this we have added the “Mega Christmas” player role which tracks how many Missions or Minigames you have played during the period - For Maximum rewards players will need to max out this role on one of their characters!
Additionally, all accounts that have logged in during the period in which we were experiencing Networking issues will be awarded 500G1C shortly after the Event starts.
Christmas Mega Event
Christmas is just around the corner and we’ve been working hard on delivering this years Christmas Update for you all.
Similar to last year we’re going to be running Beacon Minigames - Play enough Minigames to max out the new “Eggnogging On Your Door” role which awards Six new Titles, 2400 Joker Tickets and at the highest level the unlock for a two open-slot COBR-A “Venom” allowing players to purchase it from contacts even after the Christmas Event ended.
But that’s not all!
This year will mark the grand return of the “Elf Inflicted Wounds” event - Featuring some of our staff as beefed up Elves that are going to be incredibly hard to kill but it’ll be worth it as players who kill one of the Elves will get to work with our Designer to create **a unique Title of their choosing** that will only be available to them across their account. So keep an eye out for announcements in our Discord, the Forums as well as in-game Broadcasts on when and where you may encounter one of those elusive Elves.
New Streamer Mode Features!
In addition to new Christmas changes, network upgrades, and Legends - we’ve been working on adding an official “Streamer” mode!
This is something we have wanted to add for a long time, and it needed to be complete prior to the release the Legends Patch. We’re going to release it with the Christmas Event, so we have time to get your feedback and make more tweaks.
These options will be available to all players via the regular Options menu and should provide them with ways to hide anything they do not want to see or hear locally such as:
Your own character / account details during the Login process.
Character names of other players.
Custom Symbols on Player Characters/Vehicles.
Custom made songs and death themes.
Additionally many of the Customization options allow you to pick and choose what you want to see on other players such as only disabling Customization from loading for players you have ignored or aren’t your in-game friend.
Not a streamer? We feel like regular players will still benefit from so of these nice Quality of Life changes like disabling obnoxious player-made songs or disabling obscene custom billboard art, so you don’t have to listen or look at it.
Update on “Legends”
Many of you have been eagerly awaiting more information on the next Major Patch “Legends” and we’ve made some progress since the last AMA. Unfortunately the unplanned networking migration put us behind schedule. Our Christmas event will be starting, and we hope to launch Legends in the opening months of 2026.
We know this will be disappointing to many of you, and we are sincerely sorry for the delay. There is a ton of free content in Legends that needs to be implemented and thoroughly tested before we can roll it out.
But we thought we would offer a sneak peak at the opening levels that Zombie/LaRocha will unlock. This doesn’t even include the new EMP grenade unlock, brand new clothing items, mod icons, or filler rewards such as Inventory Extensions just yet!
Heading into the new year
This year has been a bit of a roller coaster for APB:Reloaded so we are thankful to have such an insanely dedicated community that sticks with us through thick and thin - Not many games could have survived the extended Network outage we experienced at the start of the year.
So once more, thank you for your continued dedication, APB: Reloaded wouldn’t be the same game without all of you dedicated players and we can’t wait to share more exciting news such as our plans to market and grow the games population again.
Epidemic is returning this year for another run and the dangerous objective remains unchanged: three rival corporations are competing to unleash their deadly pathogens and infect the city's population, turning citizens into mindless zombies. It's a fight for domination, but only
Epidemic is returning this year for another run and the dangerous objective remains unchanged: three rival corporations are competing to unleash their deadly pathogens and infect the city's population, turning citizens into mindless zombies. It's a fight for domination, but only one virus will prevail. The question is: which corporation will reign supreme?
Meet the Epidemic Teams: The battle lines are drawn, and three corporations are trying to unleash their deadly toxins across San Paro:
Who do you think will come out on top?
How Epidemic Works:
Epidemic Daily Activities: Daily side tasks and rewards will be randomly assigned when you enter the event. Completing these challenges will help you level your Epidemic 2024 role as well as awarding some extra Joker Tickets for your efforts and spicy new Titles!
Additionally, you may sometimes encounter rare daily activities which are a little harder to complete but award you with the Blue Glow in the Dark Weapon skin or coveted Witches Hat!
Game Goals:
1 Transportation of Toxin Barrels: In the Epidemic District, your team starts in one of three territories—top, bottom left, or bottom right. Your job is to collect toxin barrels from your starting zone and carry them to neutral territories to spread your infection. But beware—these barrels degrade over time and will eventually explode if you don’t act quickly.
Barrels are also vulnerable to enemy attacks, so you’ll need to protect them while transporting. Once you capture a territory, new barrels will spawn there, allowing you to infect even more areas and strengthen your control.
2 Conquer Neutral Territories:
At the beginning of the match, six neutral territories will appear on your map, marked as task checkpoints. Your goal is to capture these zones by placing your team’s toxin barrel within the boundaries. The more areas your team captures, the faster your infection spreads. Reach 100% infection to trigger the final showdown!
3 Protect or Destroy Captured Territories:
Once a toxin barrel is placed in a territory, the borders turn your team’s color, and a large barrel bundle spawns to maintain control of the area. Defend it well, because enemy teams can destroy the bundle to neutralize the territory. The barrels are tough but not invulnerable, and they’re surrounded by toxic gas that harms enemy players, making them tricky to destroy.
End Game: The Battle for Havalynd Central Memorial Park
1 The fight to control Havalynd Central Memorial Park:
The first team to hit 100% infection triggers the final phase of the game—the battle for Havalynd Central Memorial Park. To win, your team must capture and hold this territory.
If the park is neutral, all you need to do is place a small toxin barrel and let the infection take hold. But if an enemy team has already claimed it, you’ll need to neutralize their hold before placing your own barrel. Even if your team hasn’t hit 100% infection yet, you can still try to take control of the park, forcing your rivals to recapture it.
Defend your barrel within the Park’s boundaries from enemy attacks for 90 seconds and secure your team's victory.
Epidemic 2025 Rewards: With this years run of Epidemic players can earn a bunch of new Titles as well as some of the original Epidemics rewards such as two out of the three weapon skins as well as the Epidemic symbols! Additionally, every level of the Epidemic role award you with 250 Joker Tickets as well as Level 8 awarding you the new "Glow in the Dark (White)" Weapon skin!
Following up on feedback this year players no longer need to complete dailies to advance to Epidemic 2025 role but rather just play matches of the game mode!

We’re excited to announce that the 15-Year Anniversary Patch launches today!
This post will prepare you for what is in store as part of the patch as well as what you should expect going into it.
15-Year Anniversary Event
Better late than never! To celebrate 15-Years of APB: Reloaded we’re introducing the 15-Year Anniversary event role, packed to the brim with Joker Tickets and exclusive Titles.
Additionally log in between now and the 13th of August to earn the "Ladder Climber" Title as a login reward!
Gamersfirst Anti-Cheat (GFAC)
This patch also introduces our in-house Anti-Cheat GFAC - This project has been months in the making and we’re extremely happy to finally get it out the door so we can start tackling the cheating problem head on.
GFAC is made entirely in-house and it has been a significant project. We are dedicated to improving it until we’re satisfied with the results - However, this is entirely new tech and after weeks of testing we are at the stage where we can only move forward by releasing the Anti-Cheat and tackling issues as they occur which could mean that things may be bumpy for the first week or two as we weed through any issues that get reported.
We wouldn’t have been able to get this fair without the help of some very dedicated community members, and now its up to you to jump in and help us push it forward. While we’re going to be watching GFAC closely we would also like to urge all of you to let us know about any issues related to GFAC that you encounter so we can fix said issues them as soon as possible in the dedicated “GFAC Known Issues” thread on both Discord and the Forums!
Leaderboards (Beta)
Todays patch also adds our new Leaderboard System with its first season official starting on the 1st of August!
This is another entirely new system for APB. With that in mind, August is our Leaderboards Beta phase. While we feel we have built something extremely versatile, we need to experiment with what works and what doesn’t over the next few months. We plan to move out of the Leaderboards Beta phase in early 2026 so that we can expand on the system with the things we learned.
Again, this is where you can help us! Feedback will shape this system into being the best it can possibly be so you have any please make sure to submit it in the official Leaderboards feedback threads on both the Forum and Discord!
IMPORTANT PSA: If you are using a config that uses an edited “DefaultEngine.ini” file you will need to either repair your game and redo your DefaultEngine.ini changes in the new file provided or manually edit your existing file and add the following in your [Engine.DataStoreClient] array: +GlobalDataStoreClasses="APBUserInterface.cUIDataStore_Leaderboard”
Not doing so will result in a game crash when opening the Leaderboards UI!
Premium
Todays release also marks the release of our revamped Premium service offering new rewards. You can read all about it in our dedicated blog post from a few weeks ago here but here is a short summary:
The new Premium subscription will cost $4.99 / 500 G1C, and here are the new benefits:

What’s to come
In weeks following the Anniversary patch we’re going to spend some time making Quality of Life fixes and some improvements to any issues found.
Then we will be working on the finishing touches to the next update titled “Legends” - We understand that our initial target of launching Legends two weeks after the Anniversary was a bit too ambitious so we’re going to monitor how the new features introduced in the Anniversary patch are doing before setting our sights on a potential release date for the Legends patch.
Thank you for being a part of APB: Reloaded and helping shape its legacy over the past 15 years. Log in, check out the event, and don’t miss your chance for exclusive rewards!

Hi everyone,
Yesterday, we took the game down for standard maintenance and to switch Anti DDoS providers.
This was supposed to be a pretty simple procedure... but like all things APB, it quickly unraveled and turned into a cluster.
Our fiber connection in Amsterdam has had some issues, and it went out midstream.
They got in back online, but an issue with other hardware prevented the EU World from fully functioning.
We sorted out those issues, only to have the optic fiber connection go bad again.
At this point, we have worked with our Amsterdam host to replace all the hardware giving us issues. The goal is get EU back online as soon as possible.
To be clear, no player data was lost. The outage has been a cascade of fixing underlying network issues that were missed when we put Amsterdam online, or came up during our Anti DDoS cutover. I'll give updates here until that happens.
Then over the next week, we will replace all of the other hardware that has been not been 100%.
Get Ready - The Egg Hunt Returns! Starting April 16th, dive into our wild Easter-themed chaos in special versions of Financial and Waterfront. Your mission? Gather as many eggs as possible before time runs out by targeting bunnies, chickens, and other players! Complete challenges
Get Ready - The Egg Hunt Returns!
Starting April 16th, dive into our wild Easter-themed chaos in special versions of Financial and Waterfront. Your mission? Gather as many eggs as possible before time runs out by targeting bunnies, chickens, and other players! Complete challenges to earn new titles and valuable Joker Tickets.
Watch for animals roaming the streets - mug bunnies for one egg, or chickens for up to five. The real excitement comes from player encounters: perform a full mugging to steal all their eggs, or take them down for half their stash (rounded up).
To protect your precious eggs, deliver them to contacts throughout the district. Here's everything else you need to know:
It's a full-on free-for-all - no teams, no alliances.
Each match runs for 20 minutes.
Mugging any target - chicken, bunny, or player - gives you a temporary speed boost and brief invulnerability. You'll see eggs floating around your character when this shield is active.
While shielded, you can't use weapons, and the protection disappears if you enter a vehicle or use certain mods.
Players can't interrupt your mugging, so snatch those eggs in peace.
If you're in the top 20% of egg carriers in the district, you must deposit your haul before returning to the lobby.
Collect the most eggs to become the Egg Lord - but watch out! Everyone will see your location on the map, making you the prime target.
Additionally, running from the 16th of April until the 30th April is a login reward campaign awarding every character that logs in during that period with the “A New Me” player title.
Happy hunting, and may the most egg-crazed player win!

Hello everyone, For players who may have missed our updates on social media and updates on our Steam Forums, we want to provide a full recap of what has been happening behind the scenes over the past few weeks and share the latest progress on restoring our servers. On February 2n
Hello everyone,
For players who may have missed our updates on social media and updates on our Steam Forums, we want to provide a full recap of what has been happening behind the scenes over the past few weeks and share the latest progress on restoring our servers.
On February 2nd, all three of our world wide data centers went dark and all our servers went offline without notice. We were informed by our primary network hosting provider they had encountered a serious issue requiring an unspecified amount of days to fix. This forced APB:Reloaded and GamersFirst offline. Unfortunately, we were not provided with an ETA at the time, but we immediately began working with our provider to resolve the issue.
After ongoing discussions, we were initially told services would be restored by Friday, February 7th. However, as delays continued, and deadlines were missed, we made the very difficult decision to terminate all services and implement an entirely new hosting solution to regain control over our infrastructure and ensure long-term stability.
This process has involved quickly securing all of our existing servers, acquiring new servers to meet player demand, and kicking off multiple network colocation and transit contracts around the world. Once we secured new servers, our team began working on restoring services. At the same time, we finalized development for what would have been our Valentine's Day event. As promised, this event will be launched for APB Reloaded once the game is back online.
As of right now, here is what we have accomplished for APB Reloaded, Fallen Earth, and GamersFirst:
2/21 (Friday): Network circuits were scheduled for provisioning and activation.
2/24 (Monday): Hosting cabinets were finalized and handed over for setup.
Server Racking Begins: We moved and racked all the necessary hardware for both NA and EU data centers.
All servers in North America have been set up, and we are currently waiting for one final part before going live.
In Europe, hardware has been moved to Amsterdam, racked, and plugged in. We are now waiting on circuit activation. Our CEO is currently in Amsterdam, tirelessly overseeing everything to ensure a smooth transition. Our team is actively working on-site in both locations to complete the setup as quickly as possible.
We truly appreciate the patience and support from our dedicated players. This transition has been a massive undertaking, and we are doing everything possible to ensure that APB Reloaded and Fallen Earth return stronger than before.
We are posting regular updates on our Discord, and we welcome everyone to join us there for the latest news and discussions: discord.gg/littleorbit
We will continue providing updates via Steam, Discord, and social media as we approach the final stages of this process.
Thank you for being patient with us and we'll see you back in-game soon!

As the year draws to a close, APB Reloaded v1.32 "Mobilize" delivers a wide range of improvements, new features, and seasonal content. After the significant New Horizon update in August and a return of the 2018 Halloween festivities in October, the focus now turns to refining matchmaking, strengthening anti-cheat measures, and celebrating the holidays in style.
Below are the key highlights and additions included with the "Mobilize" update and the upcoming Holiday 2024 event starting December 18th.
Cross-District Matchmaking
What’s New:
Removal of Threat Districts: Traditional threat-based district segregation has been eliminated. Players can now be matched with others across all instances of a specific district type.
Easier Access to Matches: Instead of waiting for a full district, players can relax, explore, socialize, or engage in faction-based gameplay. Once a suitable match is found, participants will be seamlessly moved to a new server.
Expanding the Player Pool: Previous district caps limited opponents to a small pool. With cross-district matchmaking, the entire player population in the same type of district is now available for match creation, greatly increasing the chances of balanced matches.
Future Plans: The development team intends to enable cross-type district and even cross-world matchmaking, further broadening the player pool and enhancing the overall gameplay experience.
SARD Anti-Cheat Enhancements
Multi-Layered Protection:
Real-Time and Daily Detections: All three modes of the new SARD anti-cheat system are now fully online. Some methods provide immediate detections, while others run daily analyses to catch less obvious issues.
Refined Ban Policy: Players identified with 100% cheating confidence are subject to discretionary bans. Those with lower-confidence detections accrue “Cheat Points.” These points may lead to restricted matchmaking or limited features until they expire, reducing exposure to suspected cheaters while minimizing false-positive impacts on regular players.
Monitoring and Adjustments: The system will be closely observed, with prompt adjustments made as needed. The goal is to maintain a fair, enjoyable environment for all players.
Holiday 2024 Event: Starting December 18th
This year’s holiday festivities return to the classic spirit of APB: Reloaded’s Christmas events. Progression roles have been tweaked so players can grind at their own pace. New titles, Joker Tickets, and unique weapon unlocks await participants who engage with the various activities and challenges.
The Beacon Festivities:
Five Rotating Minigames: Two new gun games join the rotation
“Blast from the Past” Gun Game: Experience legacy weapons with original stats, including minimal sprint delays for high-speed combat.
“Redhill Experiments…?” Gun Game: Experiment with absurd weaponry, from the PMG-SD ‘Staple Gun’ to the N-SPiN 3310, and even a Redhill attempt at “Snowparo.”
Returning favorites include:
Prototype Testing Grounds – A fan-favorite pushing the limits of regular APB weapon rules.
12 Deaths of Christmas – Classic Gun Game with adjusted mods for smoother play.
Snowball Fight! – Faction-based snowball skirmishes using a buffed HohohoPGL.
Elfin’ Around Role:
Participating in Beacon minigames levels the new “Elfin’ Around” role. Progression grants six new titles, 2400 Joker Tickets, and permanent access to lease the DOW Stock NFCP 2 shotgun.
Mission District Mayhem:
Seasonal weapons (HohohoPGL and Snowball grenades) will be sent via in-game mail. Use them to progress the returning “Snowball Fight!” Weapon Role in Mission Districts and earn Joker Tickets, new titles, and the Candy Cane weapon skin.
Look out for special community-wide Snowball Fights and Gun Games organized by Staff and GMs throughout the holiday season, offering additional Joker Ticket rewards.
Seasonal Vendors:
The Elves have refreshed their stock, allowing players to earn five titles from previous Christmas events and purchase all six Christmas-themed weapon skins for Joker Tickets.
Joker Ticket Store Additions
Wilde at the Joker Distribution Store is expanding the lineup with permanent weapon additions, including:
CBMP-45 ‘Arrow’
Norseman ‘Hel’
Norseman ‘Tyr’
Norseman ‘Hoenir’
Joker RFP-9-SD “Talon”
S-AS PDW “Hotfoot”
These additions are timed perfectly with the surge in Joker Ticket rewards from holiday activities, giving players more options to spend their earnings.
New Legendary Weapon: VBR ‘Enchantress’
The VBR ‘Enchantress’ is a high-mobility, fast-firing, two-shot-to-kill sniper rifle with limited range but superior accuracy on the move. Inspired by the original N-HVR 243 ‘Scout,’ it enhances the jump-shooting dynamic without recreating past balance issues. To fully leverage its mobile accuracy, Hunting Sight 3 is required, ensuring that this Legendary remains balanced and skill-oriented.
Holiday 2024 ARMAS Sale & New Items
From December 18th, all ARMAS items will be discounted by 15%. Additionally, a variety of permanent and limited-time seasonal items will be available, including:
The APB Reloaded team appreciates the community’s dedication and support throughout 2024.
The changes and additions introduced this year are intended to set a strong foundation for 2025, aiming for improved fairness, more frequent matches, and fresh content that caters to a wide range of playstyles. Whether participating in epic firefights, enjoying minigames in The Beacon, or spending time in the Social Districts designing new outfits, there’s something for everyone.
Enjoy the holidays, the new matchmaking system, the anti-cheat enhancements, the Legendary VBR ‘Enchantress,’ and the wide array of new Joker Store items that players can earn for free.
Here’s to making the remainder of 2024 enjoyable and setting the stage for a fantastic 2025.
The Epidemic Returns: Can You Survive San Paro’s Deadliest Infection? Hey everyone! After a long break, Epidemic has returned, bringing chaos back to San Paro! Though it hasn’t been seen since 2018, the dangerous objective remains unchanged: three rival corporations are competing
The Epidemic Returns: Can You Survive San Paro’s Deadliest Infection?
Hey everyone! After a long break, Epidemic has returned, bringing chaos back to San Paro! Though it hasn’t been seen since 2018, the dangerous objective remains unchanged: three rival corporations are competing to unleash their deadly pathogens and infect the city’s population, turning citizens into mindless zombies. It’s a fight for domination, but only one virus will prevail. The question is: which corporation will reign supreme?
Meet the Epidemic Teams: The battle lines are drawn, and three corporations are trying to unleash their deadly toxins across San Paro:
Epidemic Teams Who do you think will come out on top?
How Epidemic Works:
Epidemic Daily Activities: Daily side tasks and rewards will be randomly assigned when you enter the event. Completing these challenges will help you level your Epidemic 2024 role as well as awarding some extra Joker Tickets for your efforts and spicy new Titles!
Additionally, you may sometimes encounter rare daily activities which are a little harder to complete but award you with the Blue Glow in the Dark Weapon skin or coveted Witches Hat!
Game Goals: 1 Transportation of Toxin Barrels: In the Epidemic District, your team starts in one of three territories—top, bottom left, or bottom right. Your job is to collect toxin barrels from your starting zone and carry them to neutral territories to spread your infection. But beware—these barrels degrade over time and will eventually explode if you don’t act quickly.
Barrels are also vulnerable to enemy attacks, so you’ll need to protect them while transporting. Once you capture a territory, new barrels will spawn there, allowing you to infect even more areas and strengthen your control.
2 Conquer Neutral Territories:
At the beginning of the match, six neutral territories will appear on your map, marked as task checkpoints. Your goal is to capture these zones by placing your team’s toxin barrel within the boundaries. The more areas your team captures, the faster your infection spreads. Reach 100% infection to trigger the final showdown!
3 Protect or Destroy Captured Territories:
Once a toxin barrel is placed in a territory, the borders turn your team’s color, and a large barrel bundle spawns to maintain control of the area. Defend it well, because enemy teams can destroy the bundle to neutralize the territory. The barrels are tough but not invulnerable, and they’re surrounded by toxic gas that harms enemy players, making them tricky to destroy.
End Game: The Battle for Havalynd Central Memorial Park
1 The fight to control Havalynd Central Memorial Park:
The first team to hit 100% infection triggers the final phase of the game—the battle for Havalynd Central Memorial Park. To win, your team must capture and hold this territory.
If the park is neutral, all you need to do is place a small toxin barrel and let the infection take hold. But if an enemy team has already claimed it, you’ll need to neutralize their hold before placing your own barrel. Even if your team hasn’t hit 100% infection yet, you can still try to take control of the park, forcing your rivals to recapture it.
Defend your barrel within the Park’s boundaries from enemy attacks for 90 seconds and secure your team's victory.
Epidemic 2024 Rewards: With this years run of Epidemic players can earn a bunch of new Titles as well as some of Epidemics old rewards such as two out of the three weapon skins as well as the Epidemic symbols! Additionally, every level of the Epidemic role award you with 150 Joker Tickets!
Halloween 2024 Sale: Spooky Deals Await! To celebrate the return of Epidemic, we're launching the Halloween 2024 Sale with an array of killer deals. Stock up on Joker Tickets, character slots, and some of your favorite weapons like the OCA Nano ‘Butcher,’ Colby .45 AP, and the VAS C2 ‘Troublemaker.’ All SWARM, ISSR-A, FR0G, and ATAC 424 variants are also discounted, along with exclusive kits and vehicles like the Criminal and Enforcer Firehawk sets and the Han Coywolf Bundle.
This Halloween brings a set of Biohazard-themed weapon skins for Undedox, Zombicine, and Necrocite, alongside classic spooky skins like Halloween Ghost and Glow in the Dark Blue. Returning favorites include the Halloween Classics and 2018 bundles, as well as costume and animal symbol sheets to let your creativity shine.
Don't miss out on these hauntingly good deals while dominating San Paro!

Meet Lucas and Lynette
Introducing Lucas Van Rooyen and Lynette Casey, two fearsome higher-ups in their factions that are looking for new recruits to do their bidding in return for rewards that will help you stay on top of the ever-changing street wars of San Paro.
Unlocking Lucas and Lynette
Unlike previous contacts, Lucas and Lynette are not of the specialist tier, instead, these contacts are positioned a little more in APB Reloaded’s mid-game progression and have 15 levels each which means that these contacts can be unlocked as early as Rank 88 if you focus your efforts on maxing just Blood Rose or Prentiss Tiger contacts!
Unlocking Lucas Van Rooyen requires you to reach level 10 with the following Blood Rose contacts:
Tyron Sennet
Jeung Bloodrose
Unlocking Lynette Casey requires you to reach level 10 with the following Prentiss Tigers contacts:
Chiza
Byeong Lee
If you have already maxed out the contacts named above you will be referred to Lucas or Lynette when logging in with your character on Version 1.31 “New Horizon”.
When reaching the maximum level with Lucas Van Rooyen, he will refer you to Michael Simeone. Similarly, reaching the maximum level with Lynette Casey will result in her referring you to Orlenz' Moretti.
Rewards
New contacts bring new rewards, so here’s a quick overview of what Lucas and Lynette have in store for you!
Weapons
The following weapons are available as part of the standard contact progression with Lucas and Lynette:
Showstopper Pistol
OCA ‘Nano’ Pistol
Obeya CAP40-C NFCP 2
N-SSW 74 Adeen
VBR ‘Temptress’
VAS C2 NFCP 1
N-TEC 7 Adeen
N-HVR 243 ‘Scout’ Nol
If you have maxed out Lucas or Lynette you may also be eligible for a rare daily activity awarding you with the following weapon:
N-ISSR-B ‘Recon’
Additionally the following Weapon skins are awarded for reaching the maximum level of Lucas or Lynette:
Short Circuit - Blue
Short Circuit - Red
Short Circuit - Green
Modifications
New contacts are a perfect opportunity to add new modifications and spice up the gameplay, here are three new modifications as well as one returning modification available in v1.31 New Horizon:
Display Banner
Orange character mod allows you to place down a large Display Banner with your personal symbol on it! This feature was originally a refer-a-friend reward, and we are bringing it back for those who missed the chance to unlock it previously.
Long-Range Rifling
The red weapon modification increases your weapon's effective range by 25% at the cost of reducing the weapon's rate of fire by 10%. Additionally, burst weapons suffer a 20% burst rate penalty for using this mod.
Muzzle Brake (Vertical) is a red weapon modification that will reduce the vertical recoil of your weapon by 30% at a minor drawback of increasing horizontal recoil by 7%.
Lastly Suspension Tuning, our very first “Tuning” vehicle modification uses a red vehicle modification slot. This modification will decrease the Suspension Stiffness and Damping of your vehicle by 50% with no additional downside. We’re excited to see which cars can use this modification to greatly empower their maneuverability.
These modifications are going to be available for purchase after unlocking them and players will not receive a free version as part of unlocking them as we felt like this behavior should be kept exclusively for Specialist contacts.
Vehicles The following vehicles are unlocked as part of leveling Lucas and Lynette:
Growl S3
Sungnyemun Mirage S-22
Clothing
Maxing our Lucas or Lynette will award you with their respective outfit as well as Blood Rose/Prentiss Tiger inspired presets using some of our new clothing items such as the Trench Coat. Here’s a sneak peek:
Inventory Expansions More items require you to have more inventory capacity, fortunately, Lucas and Lynette have you covered! Players will be able to earn the following inventory expansions as part of Lucas and Lynette’s contact progression:
