Our 1st Anniversary event is coming up next week! We’re kicking off the festivities with Patch 1.5.4, which is out now.
Hope you’re enjoying the new Sensor Beacons and one madman’s genius’s decision to make Surefire a semi-burst weapon.
In addition to the latest updates to Wildgate, we’re excited to host a couple of community events to celebrate our upcoming 1st Anniversary: A tournament powered by our friends at Champion’s Reach and a Treasure Selfie Hunt. Get them dirty deets below.

Each title will be unique to its category, and 5 winners will be randomly selected from each category as the ultimate selfie treasure hunter. If we receive more than 20 unique player entries per category, these titles will be unlocked for ALL PLAYERS.
The more categories you participate in, the more in-game titles you can win!

Most Creative - The winners will be selected by a community vote at the end of the event. You decide what’s creative, just don’t make us regret having eyes.

The Most Creative category is an exception to rule 2, the same player may post multiple entries, but only one entry from that player can win from the community vote.
