At the heart of the update is the Steampunk Frontier Mode, which transports players into a stylized world inspired by classic steampunk design. The environment is built around a sprawling railway system and includes several new points of interest.

• Aetherholm: This large central train station includes passenger amenities and a hidden room in its clock tower, accessible by elevator. Players can also summon a train loaded with high-value cargo to the platform.
• Cargo Hub: A key transit area with both large and small city zones. Tracks connect these zones, allowing for quick movement between them.
• Hot Air Balloons: Found along the railway and in open areas, these balloons serve as gliding platforms, offering new ways to move and observe the battlefield.
• Train Platform: A small, rural train station with strategic value during matches.
• Rollercoaster Checkpoint: A fun, interactive feature where players can ride a rollercoaster and take in the view — complete with an in-game photo opportunity.
