Developer Siege Camp revealed that the Infantry update is releasing to Foxhole on November 18. It’s going to overhaul the infantry gameplay and make it more tactical and team oriented. There’s a lot to be excited about with this upcoming update.

The Infantry update introduces a major revamp of Foxhole's infantry gameplay, designed to be more team-oriented and tactical. This update introduces deeper suppression gameplay, weapon shouldering mechanics, and a stamina overhaul, alongside other features to make the entire infantry playspace more impactful on the persistent battlefield.

Here are some features to be introduced with the Infantry update:

  • New Anti-Tank Weaponry: Infantry forces are now equipped to counter armor with the introduction of specialized anti-tank rifles for suppressing enemy advances.
  • Close Quarters Combat: Fight at close quarters with a new melee combat system featuring charge attacks, blocking, and new weapons like the Mace and Sword. New Shotguns can be used to stagger and bleed enemy soldiers.
  • Infantry Battlegrounds: A more engaging infantry battleground with the addition of large-scale minefields and ruined fortifications, offering cover and a more dynamic combat environment.
  • Equipment Loadouts: Players can now build custom loadouts used to assemble predetermined gear with ease.
  • New Vehicles: Bolster forces with new tanks and the all-new Medical Train, which acts as a mobile field hospital on the battlefield.


There’s also a change to Medics and they’re going to take on a critical expanded role once the update goes live. They’re now able to transport wounded from the front lines and bring them to Hospitals for full recovery at Hospitals. Field Hospitals meanwhile can now be built directly inside bunker networks and thus allowing medical operations at the trench lines.

While the Infantry update is set to make interesting changes to the game, a major update is in the works and to introduce a lot of new content.
