Launching February 21st, the season will include a crossover with the iconic Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the heist theme.
This collaboration coincides with the marketing campaign for Mortal Kombat 2, the upcoming film starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.
Skins will be priced at 1,500 V-Bucks each.

Returning weapons include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. Speculation abounds regarding the return of other weapons from previous heist-themed seasons, such as the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler, but these are currently unconfirmed.
A significant addition is the Smart Building feature, anticipating player building needs based on aiming direction. The heist theme also introduces a revamped gameplay mechanic: vault breaches, replacing keycards. Players will require Meltanite, a thermite-like substance, to access the vaults and their rewards.
