Among the discussions about other features planned for 2022, the thieves_ team confirmed the elimination of sand mode that was initially added years ago.

«We launched The Arena with great hopes in 2019 as part of the anniversary update, but as only 2% of our players' base has been regularly involved with this dedicated competitive mode, it has finally become unsustainable to continue providing technical updates and control of Quality for both the sand and adventure modes, the update said.

The sand mode will remain playable until March 10, at which time it will close. The details on how its elimination will be developed and what will happen with respect to the customizations offered will be published at a later date.
