In addition, Global and Garena players are gradually matched together by map and difficulty, and the accounts remain separate.
Delta Force Season 12 Mission Reset
The Delta Force Season 12 mission reset clears all Season 11 mission progress, and a new line of Season 12 missions replaces it. Here’s what changes when Season Aurora starts:
- Season 11 missions: all mission progress from the previous season is cleared.
- Safe Box access: Ultimate Safe Box Season Access from earlier seasons and all Safe Box Trial Cards expire.
- Season 11 Pass rewards: the free Rover unlock and the Hackclaw – Netrunner skin can no longer be earned after November 9.
The patch notes do not list your stash, Tekniq Alloys, or Delta Coins among the reset items. The Special Supply Pack top reward also changes from the Robot Cleaner to the Prototype Fusion Power Unit.
You have to complete the new mission line again from the start. Our Delta Force Season Quest service completes the seasonal quests for you and earns progress toward the 3×3 stash before the season ends.
Delta Force Season 12 New Operator
The new operator in Delta Force Season 12 is Martelo, an Assault operator whose real name is Veronica Cardozo. The kit combines a shield charge, a smoke launcher, and a grenade, so Martelo is a good pick for a squad that needs someone to break into a position first. Below, you can see the full list of abilities:
- Ariete: Martelo deploys the Ariete shield and charges forward with reduced frontal damage. The charge ends with a Heavy Strike that deals damage and knocks enemies down after hitting an enemy or a wall. You can also end it early by leaping and slamming the shield into the ground.
- Smoke Halo: the shoulder launcher fires several smoke grenades around the operator to create a ring of smoke. If you hold the button, it switches to a single shot that covers a chosen area with a full smokescreen.
- High-Explosive Grenade: Martelo throws it quickly, and it explodes after a short countdown of a few seconds.
- Guerreira: the passive briefly raises movement speed and reload speed after Martelo knocks down an enemy or drops below a Health threshold.
You can unlock Martelo for free through the Delta Force Season 12 Season Pass. The skill trial events for the new operator run in Operations and Warfare from November 10 to December 10, and they reward Armament Vouchers and an exclusive Calling Card. Exact cooldowns and damage values for the kit have not been published yet.
Need an operator from earlier seasons as well? Our Delta Force Operators Unlock Service can unlock the character you want, so you don’t have to grind for it.
Read how every other operator is unlocked in our Delta Force How to Unlock All Operators guide.
Delta Force Season 12 Warfare Changes
Delta Force Season 12 brings Warfare a new map, a new Call-in Attack, and two PC display modes, while Akh Canal is removed from the map pool. The patch notes give no reason for the removal. Below, you can see the main Warfare updates in Season Aurora:
- Immersive Mode: on PC, this mode hides most of the user interface in Attack and Defend, King of the Hill, and Victory Unite.
- Full Verity Mode: PC players can turn on full Unreal Engine 5 graphics with Lumen, Nanite, and improved water and vegetation.
- Thermobaric Bomb: this new Call-in Attack marks a target with a strike beacon, penetrates obstacles with a small lethal shockwave, and ignites combustible dust after a delay for extra burn damage.
- Vehicle airdrops: called-in vehicles can now come with temporary active defense.
- Free Battlefield: the minimum number of players drops from 20 to 2, and two spectator slots are added.
- Victory Unite: attackers earn bonus points for holding objectives.
Smaller fixes adjust King of the Hill battle areas on Threshold, the defenders’ LAV-AA spawn in Cyclone Sector A, and the locations and Black Hawk convoy route on The Mog.
Delta Force Season 12 New Warfare Map
Zenith Port is the new Warfare map in Delta Force Season 12, where G.T.I. forces storm a harbor under fleet cover. Its main feature is the Riptide event, which starts with a sustained guided-missile barrage that draws air-defense fire. Intercepted missiles explode in the sea and raise huge waves, so the fight moves to the rooftops.
Amphibious vehicles and watercraft rise and fall with the waves, and this effect works only on Zenith Port. The map also has exclusive vehicle music and a preview of the Verity audio mix.
Delta Force Season 12 Operations Changes
Operations get a reworked Brakkesh and a new Hard mode in Delta Force Season 12, although the Hard mode opens only on December 18. The map rotation changes too, and the list below shows the new schedule:
- Easy maps: Zero Dam and Layali Grove are always available on Easy.
- Normal maps: Zero Dam, Brakkesh, AZ3, and Space City stay in the permanent Normal pool.
- Rotation: Tide Prison Hard and Space City Hard alternate in two-hour blocks, and AZ3 Easy also joins the rotation.
- Weekends: Layali Grove Normal and Brakkesh Hard open on weekends.
Delta Force Season 12 Operations Map Update
Brakkesh 2.0 is the main map update for Operations in Delta Force Season 12, with a completely reworked Babel area and a new layout for the Central Command Zone. Seven Brakkesh events run from November 10 to November 26 and give Brakkesh Tokens for the Event Store, while Brakkesh Renewed lasts until December 10.
Delta Force Season 12 Faction Mode
Brakkesh also gets a faction mode in Delta Force Season 12, a clash between Haavk Corp and the Ahsarah Guard. To join it, you find the hidden contacts on the map, choose a side, and receive a faction badge. Once the badge reaches Lv.2, faction milestones and faction hunts open up.
Delta Force Season 12 Hard Operations Mode
The Hard Operations mode of Delta Force Season 12, AZ3 Supercritical, is expected to be available from December 18, 2026, to January 25, 2027. You won’t find it in the rotation at launch, so here are the entry requirements to prepare for:
- Level requirement: you need Operations Level 30 to queue for the mode.
- Entry cost: the entry costs 600,000 Tekniq Alloys.
- Polaris Patrol: the mode supports it, and the patrol continues until January 26, 2027.
Reaching Operations Level 30 before December 18 takes a lot of raids. To reach it in time, you can order our Delta Force Operation Leveling, which raises your level up to the maximum and upgrades your base as well, so you’ll be ready when the mode opens.
Delta Force Season 12 Detonation Changes
Detonation in Delta Force Season 12 now supports consoles and controllers, and the mode gets ranked changes for high-level players. Ranks in this mode do not reset for now, so you keep your current rank in Season Aurora. The list below covers the ranked changes:
- Legend and above: ranked matches are limited to solo or duo queue.
- Fiery Owl and above: you get fewer points for a win when your squadmate’s rank points differ from yours by more than 600.
- Leaderboard results: the server and regional standings are settled every week.
- Rank button: the Lobby now shows your current rank.
MandelBricks now drop in Detonation, with a weekly limit shared with Warfare, and Operator Profile missions also count in this mode. Scoreboards now rank players by effective damage, and AFK detection is improved. You can also buy a helmet or vest separately when the other piece is undamaged.
📌 The Power Station zipline is now audible from a shorter distance.
Climbing to Legend is harder when only solo and duo queues are allowed. If you want the rank and its rewards without the grind, our Delta Force Rank Boost can take your account to the rank you need.
Learn how ranked points and divisions work in our Delta Force Ranked Guide.
Delta Force Season 12 New Weapons
The new weapon in Delta Force Season 12 is the AN-94, a 5.45x39mm assault rifle that is also added to the Elite Gear Ticket (Balanced). Kill missions with it run in Operations and Warfare from November 10 to December 10 and reward Avatar – Breakout plus Armament Vouchers. Base stats of the rifle have not been published yet. You can test it in Firing Range 2.0, which now supports operator abilities, operator switching, and moving targets.
Loading Plans are another Gunsmith addition, and you will find them under Plans. They let you set the order of rounds in your magazine with top rounds and a repeating middle section, and the feature unlocks at Operations Level 35.
Gear Tickets were reworked in Season Aurora as well. Season Mission Custom tickets now include the M14, M250, SR-25, and PKM, while the Elite Firepower ticket swaps the Lever-action for the M700.

The first thing to do in Delta Force Season 12 is to collect the time-limited rewards, since the Haavk attachments and several events end within the first two weeks. We advise you to follow this order:
- Get the Haavk attachments before November 17, because the limited window for the SR-25 and PKM mods closes on that date.
- Battle of Zenith Port gives the Toro Scatenato – Tank appearance, so play it before November 19.
- Join a faction on Brakkesh early, as the badge needs Lv.2 to open milestones and hunts, and the Brakkesh events end on November 26.
- You can unlock Martelo through the Season Pass and finish the operator trials by December 10 to get the exclusive Calling Card.
- The AN-94 Kill Missions give Avatar – Breakout and extra Armament Vouchers if you complete them before December 10.
- Raise your Operations Level to 30 before December 18 to enter AZ3 Supercritical, and later to 35 for Loading Plans.
The AZ3 Supercritical entry costs 600,000 Tekniq Alloys, and the Tekniq Alloy Store also uses the same currency until November 19. To cover both, you can get the amount you need with our Delta Force Tekniq Alloy offer and keep your stash for better equipment.
