Delta Force Celebrates Second Anniversary with Major 2027 Roadmap, New Content and Anniversary Rewards

Delta Force, the free-to-play tactical shooter from Team Jade, marks its second anniversary today with a look ahead at the game's next major chapter. During a special anniversary broadcast, Game Director Shadow outlined upcoming content across Operations, Warfare and Detonation, alongside new social features, Operator storytelling and the next stage of Delta Force's competitive scene.

Siege: Valkyrie
Coming in early 2027, Siege: Valkyrie will expand Operations with a new map built using Unreal Engine 5 features. Set in a city under siege, Siege: Valkyrie is divided by the city wall into two distinct areas with two different rules, risks and rewards. The inner city is opulent but dangerous, while the outer city is shaped by a harsher struggle for survival and resources. Players can choose to extract safely with what they have found, or push deeper into the city in pursuit of a significantly larger payout, risking everything in the process.

For the first time in Delta Force, players from different difficulty tiers will enter the same match, offering a new high-stakes Operations experience where nothing is predictable.

Warfare Evolves with Unreal Engine 5
Unreal Engine 5 features are already being introduced into Warfare with The Mog, the brand new Warfare map launching alongside Season Reorientation, supporting the technology. The next Warfare map, due to arrive in November of this year, will also push visual fidelity further, with additional maps planned throughout 2027.

Detonation Beta Launches September 27
Detonation, Delta Force's new bomb-defusal mode, opens its beta globally on September 27 at UTC+0 for PC and mobile players, with console access arriving later this year. Built around intense, objective-focused combat, Detonation pits two teams against each other in a race for control. Attackers must break through enemy defences and plant the bomb, while defenders fight to hold their ground, prevent the plant or defuse the objective before it is too late. Every round brings new tactical decisions as teams battle for key positions and look for the opening that could turn the tide.

Players can jump into the beta from September 27 to experience Detonation for themselves, and help shape the mode ahead of its full release by sharing feedback with the development team.

New Stories and Spaces for Operators
The first volume of Operator Archives launches today, offering a deeper look into the stories and backgrounds of Delta Force's Operators, available via the game's official channels. Looking ahead to early 2027, Operator Quarters will also arrive, giving players a dedicated space to customize, relax and socialize with friends.

RISE Series Season 2
Alongside the update, Delta Force’s competitive scene continues to thrive with the RISE Series, bringing teams from across EMEA and the Americas together to compete at the highest level. RISE Series Season 2 is now underway, with the top 12 international teams set to advance to the inaugural Delta Force Invitational at DreamHack Stockholm, taking place November 27–29.

Season Reorientation Begins the Second-Anniversary Celebrations
The first part of Delta Force's second-anniversary celebration, Season Reorientation, is live now, introducing a host of new content and quality-of-life improvements across Operations and Warfare. The update brings cross-region matchmaking, One-Click Loadout and a rebuilt tutorial to Operations, making it easier for players to get into the action and prepare for each match. The update also introduces the G.T.I. Field Manual and Combat Support Fund, alongside further quality-of-life improvements. Layali Grove 2.0 expands the map with new areas to explore, fishing and jet ski-based gameplay, while Polaris Patrol returns with a reworked play-as-a-boss experience, new rewards and the game's first craftable collectible.

On the Warfare front, The Mog introduces a new convoy escort experience inspired by Black Hawk Down, complete with ground and aerial combat.

Anniversary celebrations begin September 26, giving players the chance to earn up to 3,900 limited-time Delta Tickets, alongside the Golden State Legendary AUG appearance and other exclusive anniversary-themed rewards.

Delta Force is free to play and available now on Playstation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Android, iOS, Google Play, Epic Game Store, and Steam.
