New! Events
We're bringing you something really special - Events, happening five times every week!
These aren't just regular game activities. They're big events that are all about bringing our gaming community together for some awesome times.
Every week, you get five chances to join in on these cool events. They're specially made to be fun, challenging, and full of rewards. No matter if you like playing alone or with a team, there's something fun for everyone.
How to enter?
You can join these events in their special world. Just go through the Event Portal in the PvP arena.
This portal opens for three minutes when an event starts, but after that, you can't join the ongoing event.
...a high risk for a big reward.
Be ready for a real challenge, especially in the events with PvP.
These are intense because you can't leave until the end, and almost all commands are turned off.
Winning one of these events is a big deal and exciting.
And guess what? We've added 4 events for this season. They are:
Boss Battle | Envoys | Dungeons | Stronghold |
---|---|---|---|
In this epic showdown, you'll face off against an incredibly powerful boss. Only the top three players who deal the most damage and remain standing until the end will be crowned the winners of the Boss Battle. | You'll spawn into a vast room brimming with supply crates, each filled with exciting loot. Your mission? Gather as much treasure as you can in 15 minutes. But here's the twist - there's no single winner in this challenge. When the 15 minutes are up, a portal will open, offering you a one-way ticket out of the room with all your gathered goods. PvP is enabled within this event. | In the Dungeons, you'll encounter mobs with formidable health. As you navigate the labyrinthine passages, keep an eye out for a special drop place. Hidden in a random location within the dungeon, this spot holds a coveted item, different every single time. PvP is enabled within this event. | The Stronghold is essentially KOTH but on a larger scale. You and your gang can enter the Stronghold and capture it for a great reward. Once you have entered the Stronghold, the only way out is hiding, dying, or winning the Stronghold. PvP is enabled within this event. This is the same Stronghold as previously existed on OpFactions. |
New! Darkzone
The darkzone in OpFactions has undergone a complete transformation!

Question and Answers
Why did OpFactions reset?
OpFactions is already up for some time. A reset has to happen to change and improve with new features, to make the game more exciting for you all! This then allows players to have a fresh start and new players can begin to play without any significant disadvantage.
This means all items, money, and the map will be reset. Nothing will be kept leftover from the previous map. I know this must be a disappointing revelation for a lot of you, but think about the exciting new changes, the new alliances you can forge, the new map, the new features and updates the different kinds of gameplay, and the style provided with this update will surely make it a worth-while and exciting reset!
