Greetings Reagents,
The stage is set, and the cameras are rolling, let Anarchy reign. 🎥 The Kress Twins will return in a new Trial environment, the Television Studio, to exert their power on on the masses by installing a celebrity talking head as a political candidate. 📺 Meanwhile, turmoil brews within the Sinyala Facility... will control hold?
The Season 6: Project Judas update will go live March 24, 2026 10:00am ET and it will feature a new MK-Challenge, Scavenger Limited-Time Event, reworks to the X-Ray and Barricade Rigs, a new Invasion Rank Season and Leaderboard, as well as a few mysteries to discover when you enter the Facility...
New Trial Environment: Television Studio
[p align="justify"]The Kress Twins have spent years meticulously grooming Bob Vanier, a silver-tongued celebrity and idol to the masses, into their ideal political candidate. Molded to serve Murkoff's agenda, Vanier is moments away from announcing his candidacy, live on national television, unless Reagents can seat Murkoff's own candidate first.[p align="justify"]New Trial: SILENCE THE IDOL
You are the electric eye, the ravenous panopticon that births and consumes with the same razor-toothed orifice. Tear, burn, and crush the face of false charisma, and we will let you out.
New Deluxe Catalog: PROJECT JUDAS
The new Deluxe Catalog “Project Judas” will be available. The catalog is filled with 10 pages of new exclusive cosmetic items, unlock the Deluxe Catalog using Murkoff Coins other Deluxe Catalogs or purchasable in the Murkoff Store.
New MK-Challenge: SOLVE THE MURDER
You are the fetishist, whose obsession with the totems of violence allows you to define more convenient truths. Find the evidence to condemn our chosen killer, and we will let you out.
Scavenger Limited-Time Event
Prepare for the \[REDACTED] collapse. Enter the Trials with nothing. Salvage unstable, single-use Rigs from Reagent corpses. Collect discarded mechanical components and return them to drop boxes to be used for the \[REDACTED] of \[REDACTED].
Some questions are better left unanswered. For now...
[p align="start"]Program Scavenger variators:Salvage Rigs: Salvage unstable, single-use Rigs from deceased subjects throughout the Trial.
Broken Reagent: Reagents have no starting Rigs, no Prescription, no Amps, reduced Night Vision battery, and start injured.

Invasion Rank Refresh & Leaderboard Integration
As of March 24th at 10am ET the Invasion Rankings and seasonal rewards will be refreshed. All players will start fresh at the beginning of a Season and must climb their way to Gold 1 to receive all the new rewards.

X-RAY and Barricade Rigs Rework
Here are the changes coming to the X-Ray Rig:
X-Ray is now a toggle ability (On/Off).
Charge depletes while active and replenishes slowly while inactive.
Cooldown/energy system functions similarly to Night Vision.
New upgrade PING THROUGH: “Ping enemies and objects through walls while X-Ray is active. Multiple pings can be active at once.”
New upgrade ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD: “Generates an electromagnetic field while X-Ray is active, preventing trap activation.”
New upgrade FASTER RECHARGE: “Decreases X-Ray recovery time.”
New upgrade INCREASED CAPACITY: “Increase X-Ray total capacity.”
Upgrades RESOURCES INTEL and CLASSIFIED INTEL have been merged and the upgrade is now called RECON: “X-Ray highlights nearby objectives, consumables, and high-priority items.”
Upgrade SHARED INTEL has been removed.
Here are the changes coming to the Barricade Rig:
Players now carry multiple Barricades (2 by default, 3 when upgraded).
Multiple barricades can be deployed at once (oldest breaks when placing a new one beyond the limit).
Barricades are instantly refunded if destroyed or removed by the player or a teammate.
Rig Cooldown starts only after all Barricades are placed.
Removing a Barricade during cooldown immediately stops the cooldown and refunds it.
Inventory UI updated to support multiple Barricades counter.
New HUD markers appear at location of valid Barricade deployment spots.
Enemies and Invaders now require more hits to break barricades.
