Operation King Killer

Operation King Killer is the Act 4 Endgame operation, added in Season 4 Reloaded (June 25, 2026). It follows Operation Wall Breaker and pushes the JSOC vs. Guild story to the physical Central Command Node. The operation unlocks the new Prime Target Glitch Fracture and its boss. Progress persists across matches.

With the Guild network fully exposed by Wall Breaker, King Killer sends Operators to strike the terminal that houses the Command Node. The operation begins in Zone III or higher and opens with vehicular combat.
