WHAT ARE SEASONS?
We release a new "season" of gameplay every 3 months during each year. During each new season we add and update settings within our system to offer new game modes, loadouts, and other special features. This provides a continuously fresh and exciting experience for our attendees. It is essentially like a real life video game!

TAGGER LOADOUTS & BALANCE UPDATE
To start off 2026 we let players choose what loadouts they'd like to see return from previous seasons of gameplay.

YEAR 3 SEASON 1
GAME MODES
For 2026 we wanted to revamp our casual game mode line up and add in unique and easy to play game mode. We definitely hit the nail on the head as these new modes are truly one of a kind and offer a wickedly fun way to play TAG.
​
Come give it a go at an Open Play session!
​
While no competitive game modes have been added to the line up this season, do not worry! We have big plans for some VERY exciting modes to add to the competitive suite in Season 2.
GUN GAME
CASUAL TEAM AND FREE FOR ALL PLAY
A game mode that has been requested since we started back in 2024 and we are excited to now deliver it to you!
​
As players earn eliminations they will level up their loadouts as they try and climb their way to the final tagger. Players can also use the Recall Rifle to reduce opponents score and prevent them from leveling up to new (and powerful) loadouts during the match!
​
Gun Game offers both a team based and free for all experience to give players two different ways to play the game.
TITAN TDM
CASUAL TEAM PLAY
Titan TDM is a hybrid of our popular Titan Attack game modes and classic Team Elimination. In this game mode each team has one powerful TITAN player who can use their Titan Cannon to achieve easy eliminations to rack up the score.
​
The fun part of this mode is that the TITAN player is chosen at random at the start of the game and if a TITAN player is eliminated, a new player at random is chosen from their team to be the new TITAN!
FIESTA DOMINATION
CASUAL TEAM PLAY
The Team Fiesta line up of game modes have been such a hit we decided that its time to add another variation to the craziness.
​
Random loadouts are back at it, this time in our popular Domination game mode! Players battle over controlling three objectives on the field to rack up their score.
​
Will you get a Rocket Launcher and clear a full zone? Or will the roll of the dice on the random loadouts leave you hanging with the meek Mosquito Pistol!? Its chaos in the best way possible.
MINECRAFT TEAM BATTLE
CASUAL TEAM PLAY
After adding Minecraft Zombies in the last part of 2025, it became so popular that we immediately knew it was time to expand upon this thematically inspired series.
​
Team Battle is simply a game of who scores more eliminations with Minecraft inspired loadouts!
​
Players can also loot chests on the field to try and acquire powerful weapons such as the Diamond Sword or an Enchanted Crossbow!
YEAR 3 SEASON 1
FIELD LAYOUT
​​
This specific field layout is used for our Open, Advanced Play, and any competitive events held at one of our main locations.
Note that when doing Mobile events, we won't have this exact layout available.
Call Sign is a Mobile App that can be downloaded to provide players with their own personal user accounts to be used in game when they come out to play. Each season we will be resetting the stats for a new season of gameplay.​
Players simply download the app, create an account, and then sign into our system during their next visit at one of our Open Play sessions. Every time you return we assign your account to one of our taggers as you can continue racking up your stats and unlocking new tagger colors (see this seasons unlocks below).
​​
NEW to 2026 are Seasonal Events that players can take part in to earn LOADS of bonus XP by completing event challenges. The first XP event is detailed below and getting involved is simple as showing up to play with your Call Sign account. TAG Staff track the challenges and award XP to your account at the start of each week.
​​
Create your account and start playing to take advantage of these exciting new unlocks.
HOW IT WORKS
TAGGER UNLOCKS
As you play and level up during the season new unique unlocks will become available to use for players. These unlocks are special versions of the standard loadouts with provide taggers with colored LEDs and special sound effects.
