The mission will take place after the supervolcano explosion that happened during the events of the Spirithaven campaign and continues the story of a world broken by conflict and an environmental disaster of an unprecedented scale. In the months and years that followed, the survivors salvaged what they could and sought shelter to survive in the harsh, post-apocalyptic world.

Amongst the survivors were Ivo Rinaldi, the former leader of PLM, and Igor Kopylov, an ex-major of the Russian military. Together, they started a colony out of an Enigma vault they captured right after the cataclysm. It is now 2047. Their settlement is thriving but is far from safe.

The “Plague” Special Operation mission will take place in the city of Gori, which you are already familiar with from some other PvP and PvE maps.

We overhauled the Gori map significantly to offer a lot of blood-pumping short-range city combat against unrelenting enemies. There are, of course, new achievements coming as well – some of them will be fairly difficult and unorthodox, but we’re confident you’ll love them!

We will of course continue to develop more PvE content for the future. The sequel to this operation is already in the works and coming in a few short months. For now, we hope that you will enjoy this one mission and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
