Farlight Games’ battle royale hero shooter is getting new gameplay, new heroes, and a fresh new look with the Farlight 84 global relaunch. What started as a standard feature addition turned into six years of hard work to bring an all-new gaming experience—an experience that players can enjoy when the update launches on August 7.

Dive into the Action with First-Person Mode

The brand-new first-person mode brings players closer to the fight than ever before. This new game mode gets even better with enhanced, ultra-responsive gunplay mechanics and stunning graphical upgrades that make heroes, weapons, and environments clearer and more colorful than ever before. Kick up the adrenaline and enjoy the thrills when you get up close and personal with each 60-player battle.

An Even Better Buddy System

Farlight 84’s genre-bending Buddy System is better than ever with new buddies and perks. That includes new “Super Buddies,” who bring fresh and exciting interactions to make your gameplay more unique, more strategic, and more adorable than ever before.

Maps, Heroes, and More

The relaunch also introduces Nextara, an exciting new map, and Kui Dou, an intriguing new hero.

The content update sees Farlight 84’s many existing features polished and upgraded, including:

• Parkour Combat – Run, climb, and vault through dynamic battlegrounds where vertical movement is key. From tight alley shootouts to rooftop chases, parkour adds a fresh layer of tactical depth to every match.
• Rat Cannon – Launch across the map with the brand-new Rat Cannon. Whether escaping danger or crashing into the frontline, this chaotic tool turns traversal into pure mayhem.
• Immersive Gunplay – Feel the impact with ultra-responsive gun mechanics. Every shot is backed by 17 synchronized systems for fluid, high-fidelity combat that looks, sounds, and feels real.
• Buddy System 2.0 – Summon powerful pet allies mid-match. From shifting terrain to stealing items while invisible, Buddies bring unpredictable strategy and game-changing support when you need it most.
• Hero Synergies – Experiment with explosive new hero-Buddy combos. Whether building aerial fortresses or unleashing teleport ambushes, creative strategies lead to highlight-reel victories.
