A new era for Foxhole will begin on Feb 9 with the launch of Airborne, an update that expands the persistent online war into the skies. Airborne introduces air-based warfare, combining it with land and naval gameplay to create a seamless online battlefield. Prepare for aircraft operations, aviation logistics, paratroopers, a naval refresh, and a vastly expanded world reimagined with upgraded visuals.
As part of the Airborne update, players can build and operate squadrons of recon planes, fighters, bombers, and other specialized aircraft, taking part in air-to-air battles, bombing runs, and supply line disruption. Every pilot, gunner, and crewman is a player working in various roles. Aircraft are produced, armed, and repaired by player-based ground crews using production facilities, hangars, and airfields in the world.
The update also introduces paratroopers, allowing squads to deploy behind hostile lines to disrupt enemy logistics and infrastructure. Naval forces have received a refresh with new ships and the addition of the aircraft carrier, which enables aircraft to launch and conduct missions from offshore locations. These features are supported by new multi-region islands and expanded maritime areas, which increase the depth and scope of both naval and air engagements.
