Hey operators! Strap in, because the hype train for Delta Force Mobile is rolling full steam ahead into 2026! While the legendary Eclipse Vigil Mid-Season update first dropped back in May 2025, its impact has been so massive that the community is still buzzing about its legacy and the foundation it laid for the game's current meta. This update wasn't just a patch; it was a full-blown content explosion that redefined close-quarters combat and gave players a ton of new ways to earn swag. Let's dive deep into what made this mid-season refresh an absolute game-changer.

🔥 The Event Pass & New Arsenal

The centerpiece of the update was the brand-new Event Pass, running from May 16 to July 12, 2025. This was the ultimate grind for dedicated players. By playing matches and climbing the reward progression path, you could unlock some seriously cool loot. The crown jewel? The M1014 - Forest Hunter shotgun skin, a camo masterpiece perfect for jungle ops. Grinders were also rewarded with 20 Armament Vouchers, crucial for unlocking other gear. Talk about a rewarding grind!

But wait, there's more! The arsenal got a major upgrade with two new firearms:

• K437 Assault Rifle: A new mid-range beast.

• 725 Double-Barrel Shotgun: For when you need to deliver a message up close and personal.

Unlocking them was part of the fun—players had to complete specific missions in both Warfare and Operation modes. This design encouraged everyone to try all aspects of the game.

💥 New Game Modes & Chaotic Events

This is where the update truly shined. The developers listened to the community's cries for more shotgun chaos and delivered in spades!

Warfare Mode: Shotgun Storm

OMG, this mode was pure, unadulterated chaos—and we loved it! Running from May 16 to 29, 2025, the Shotgun Storm event forced everyone to pick Assault Operator roles and wield only shotguns. No camping, no sniping—just in-your-face, run-and-gun madness. Completing the event challenges netted you awesome rewards:

• Armament Voucher

• Premium & Intermediate Weapon EXP Tokens

• Warfare 2x EXP Card (1 Match)

• The epic Vehicle Appearance: Tank - Tiger Hunter

Operations Mode: Gator Frenzy & Look Storage Box

PvE fans got their own treats! The Gator Frenzy event (also May 16-29) had players hunting crocodiles in Zero Dam and Layali Grove for their loot-filled lairs. The rewards were top-tier cosmetic flexes:

• Spray Paint: Pro Player

• Avatar: Pro Player

• Calling Card: Pro Player

• Weapon Appearance: ASh-12 - Skynet Tech

The Look Storage Box event (May 16-22) was a simpler grind for more of those precious Armament Vouchers.
