Map Introduction:
Livik will cover an area of 2×2 km in size, which is extremely small as compared to other maps in the game. The map may come under “Playground” section because the lobby will comprise of only 52 players. The developers made this map with an intention to keep the play time to maximum of 15 minutes.
The map is a combination between a dormant volcano in the southern part and snow covered mountains in the northern part. As a result of this, there is a variety of climates in different parts of map.
Here is a short description of various places in the map and what we know about them for now:
- Lupine Felt: It is located in the North-Western part of the map and will have a sea of lupine flowers blossoming in long open fields.
- Reeds: It is located in the central region of the map. It is like a swamp with waist-high reeds. It will be favourite spot for players who like to play that sneaky game like Sanhok.

New Guns:
New guns are added to this map exclusively. The famous P90 from mode Team Death-Match is one of those weapons. A new gun MK-12 is introduced which is going to be a DMR weapon and will use 5.56mm ammunition. It will have a standard magazine of 20 bullets and maximum of 30 bullets, it has approximate reload time of 3.2 seconds and will include all the attachments including foregrip, scopes, canted sight, muzzles and magazine. This gun will be exclusively available in this map only.
