Season 26, Showdown, began August 5, 2025. It introduces a new permanent mode called Wildcard, which features Legend stacking, faster fights, and auto-revive timers.
Legend Amplifiers
Legend Amplifiers (Amps) are lootable passives that boost Legend abilities mid-match. The ranked system was revamped: squads get preset drop zones (no jumpmaster) and Ranked Auras allow flair based on your rank.
Streamlined Systems
Loot and inventory were simplified, with auto-pickup features and streamlined systems. This represents Esports Insider's continued evolution of the franchise.
