— An Independence Day Story —
Stars, stripes, and stories worth telling. A limited 7-day event with red-white-and-blue handcuffs, a co-op freedom trail questline, and rewards that vanish when Independence Day weekend ends.
A 7-day Independence Day event running July 4–10, 2027. New characters, a co-op freedom trail questline through a sun-drenched American heartland map, red-white-and-blue handcuffs, and a secret reward hidden atop the Liberty Beacon — only reachable by two players moving as one.
From a fireworks-lit town square to a secret hilltop only two cuffed players can summit together — every new addition, listed below.
The lobby transforms into a sun-baked small-town square — bunting-draped storefronts, a glittering river at dusk, a fireworks show every hour, and hidden star tokens tucked behind every corner.
World6 story-driven quests following Sam and Ellie — old friends torn apart by separate roads who must find their way back to the same town before the last Fourth of July firework fades.
StoryOne secret quest requires two cuffed players to scale the Liberty Beacon together — a winding hilltop trail with three checkpoints only reachable when both players move in perfect sync.
Co-opFive new variants — Stars & Stripes, Old Glory, Eagle Talon, Fourth of July, and the legendary Declaration — each forged from iron and lacquered in red, white, and blue.
