- Chaos Agents Patch 1.9.4.4: Team Play is Here! - 24 August 2026
A huge new update has landed, bringing some of the biggest changes to Chaos Agents yet.TEAM PLAY IS HERE.Team up with other Brokers, coordinate your drops, share objectives, and battle opposing teams. Teammates won’t attack one another but coordination will be needed to ensure your team doesn’t overextend itself. This is a very early version of Team play - we have lots of improvements to come. In this mode, you’ll join the match as normal, and when your Agent beams down they’ll be sorted into a team.Once the match starts, you’ll see a new version of the leaderboard where your team is aggregated together. Winning Brawlmaster isn’t an individual task anymore, it’s a shared team responsibility. Every Shard or KO helps your team. Surviving is now also focused on the team. Even if a single member of your team is the last survivor the team as a whole wins! 12-PLAYER MATCHES ARE NOW THE DEFAUL…

This patch is absolutely huge for us, as we’re releasing the Agent class system, expanding all Agents to 36 skills, implementing a number of new types of skills, and fixing several longstanding bugs. We’ll cover the main changes very briefly here, but please read the full patch notes for details, linked below.The Agent Class SystemThe Agent Class System changes the game in many fundamental ways.
