Blastpoint Update Launches June 9 with Cairo Bazaar and BR Solos
Blastpoint arrives June 9 with Cairo Bazaar, a reimagined Battlefield 3 map carrying expanded destruction and rerouted flanks, and a return of Battle Royale Solos. Solos drops to 80 players and removes Main Battle Tanks and Infantry Fighting Vehicles to keep one-on-one fights honest.
The update threads Blastpoint's headline additions through a wide balance and progression pass.
Cairo Bazaar is the second Battlefield 3 remake of the season, with reworked destruction and new flanking routes
BR Solos returns at 80 players (down from 100), no MBTs or IFVs in rotation
High Value Zones roll out in non-ranked BR to concentrate loot in marked areas
Soldier visibility filters get a tuning pass alongside vehicle changes — helicopters gain Thermal Optics, the Mobile Anti-Air gets High Velocity and Laser-Guided missiles
Portable mortar nerf : health drops from 250 to 50 and it can no longer pair with Missile Intercept Systems
Loot pool expansion adds the PP19 submachine gun and a guided Missile Strike Package
Portal additions : Railway to Golmud and Cairo Bazaar are now usable in custom experiences
Progression speed climbs — Battle Pass unlocks 2.5× faster than Season 1, weapon attachments roughly 50% quicker
Spray paint customization ships alongside the rest
High Value Zones overlaid on the Fort Lyndon Battle Royale map for the Solos rotation
