Delta Force Season Aurora Update: Martelo, Zenith Port, AN-94

Delta Force’s new season, Aurora, is set to arrive on Tuesday 10 November 2026 as a non-stop update across PC, mobile and console. It is due to bring a new Assault Operator, a new Warfare map, a new firearm and a big pile of balance changes.

Update timing

The schedule is the same on every platform, and the times below are Sydney time (AEDT). Perth is 3 hours behind.

11:30am on Tuesday 10 November: Operations and Warfare ranked matches go off-season and close temporarily.
12:59pm: the Operations entrance and matchmaking close, and the Market and Auction House are disabled.
1pm: the update is due to become available on PC, Android, iOS, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. That’s 10am in Perth.

If something looks off afterwards on PC, the team suggests restarting the game to finish the update. iOS players need iOS 13 or higher.
