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!

YEAR 3 SEASON 2
GAME MODES
We've been working on new game modes that would redefined our already dynamic Laser Tag experience. Read on to learn more about Stratagem and Tactical, which are two of favorite mode ideas to date! Tactical also brings a new mode to our competitive line up.
​
Come give it a go at an Open or Advanced Play session!​
STRATAGEM
CASUAL TEAM PLAY
This may be our most unique and exiting game mode to date. In Stratagem, teams begin the round with 100 points and have one point taken off whenever a player is eliminated.
​
During the game there will be new objectives that activate to offer teams a way to try and pad their score or battlefield hazards may arrive which can heavily affect opponents score if achieved!
​
Stratagem will receive ongoing updates during the year to continue to offer evolving versions of the objectives and unique scenarios that could occur during the game.
TACTICAL
COMPETITIVE TEAM PLAY
Tactical has been in the works for a while in the background and it is finally time for it to join the competitive game mode line up!
​
Tactical is a hybrid of two of our existing competitive game modes to create a unique way to play in our competitive setting. The first half of the mission is King of the Hill which then swaps over to Domination at the halfway point of the game!
​
Throughout the year we will be releasing new versions of Tactical as we combine different sets of our competitive game modes.
HOTSWAP TDM
CASUAL TEAM PLAY
Hotswap Team Elimination is a new way to allow players to experience new loadouts that are launched during each season. In this mode players are locked in with a loadout at the start of the round with the loadout switching to a new one at every minute mark in the match.
​
This is a great way to try out new playstyles, see what loadouts feel like that you may not normally use, or just to let younger players try new options who may struggle with choosing their own loadout at the start of a round.
YEAR 3 SEASON 2
FIELD LAYOUT
​​
This specific field layout is used for our Open, Advanced Play, and any competitive events held at one of our main locations. FOUR new bunkers have also been added to the field!
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.
