New location and weapons await in Active Matter
Gaijin Entertainmenttogether with the Matter Team, released the first major update for its hardcore online shooter Active matter. The update, called Fire Walk, is now live and introduces a wide range of new content, technical improvements and gameplay improvements that make the game even more fun and survival-focused.
The main addition is a completely new industrial location called The Dam. Designed around heavy concrete structures and dangerous open spaces, this area pushes players into dangerous encounters while encouraging careful movement and tactical planning. In addition to the new map, Fire Walk adds new monsters and environmental anomalies that make exploration more unpredictable and combat even more challenging.
The update also significantly expands the game's arsenal. Players can now use weapons such as the M249 machine gun, Origin 12 shotgun, RPG 7 grenade launcher, SVDM sniper rifle, AEK 971 and AN 94 “Abakan” assault rifles, as well as the PP 19 01 submachine gun. The developers have also improved the handling of weapons by introducing an adjustable shooting distance, additional muzzle brakes and flash suppressors, which provides greater control and customization in firefights.
Attention was also paid to defensive technology. New titanium armor plates enhance survivability, while the EDH Gen V and TFMK I helmets provide active hearing protection, adding another layer of realism to combat encounters.
In addition to new content, Fire Walk improves the overall presentation of Active Matter. Interface updates, smoother animations and improved visual effects make the game better and more responsive. The new trailer shows off these additions and highlights the darker, more dangerous tone of the update. Active Matter is currently available for purchase from the Gaijin Store, and full patch details are listed at official website.
