⚔️ Gauntlet Weapon Deploy Event 🛡️

The Gauntlet Games have begun! We’ve seen the excitement around the new Forged Gauntlet Weapons, and we know a lot of you are ready to put them to the test! Since they’ve only been available as Gauntlet Games (formerly known as “Clan Wars”) rewards, newer players — or anyone who hasn’t jumped into the Gauntlet yet — haven’t had many chances to get their hands on them.

So we’re opening things up! For a limited time, Gauntlet Weapons are available in the Freeze Tag Store HERE — and if you’ve already grabbed your max limit of 3 or want even more ways to build your arsenal, we’ve got something special lined up for you…

🔨 Put the Pedal to the Metal!

As mentioned in last week’s Gauntlet Games launch post, we’ve prepared a special deploy event where you can earn Gauntlet Weapons for deploying certain types, running from Sunday May 3, 2026 at 00:01 MHQ until Sunday May 10, 2026 at 23:59 MHQ:

LIMIT 1 OF EACH WEAPON EARNED EVERY 24 HOURS — meaning after you deploy one of the types listed above, you must wait 24 hours before deploying the next one of the same type category for it to count.


🐲 Gauntlet Games Universal

If you’re excited for this new take on team play, show your enthusiasm with the Gauntlet Games Universal! With the best features of both Social and Personal Munzees, players can capture Universals from anywhere, and activity on it earns points. Due to its high value, we are limiting it to one per player. Don’t miss out on this limited edition Universal—available HERE.

A Universal has the same point structure as a regular Personal:

  • Capture: mystery random points 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45
  • CapOn: sum of 50 between player capture and residual
    • Example: player capture = 30, owner residual = 20. Total = 50
  • Deploy: 100 points (only deploy it once with no proximity or expiration!)

**Boosters will have no effect on Universal points.

You can find your Universal in the My Social Munzees section of the app, or the corresponding page on the website.

Like other Universals, these will be auto-deployed upon purchase!

For more information, check out the Help Guide article.

Munzee on!

Lumberjack PakRat Details

The Lumberjack PakRat is the sixteenth PakRat, a NEW line of tPOBs which have the unique feature of requiring Twigz to rebuild, and earn Cogs for the owner upon archival. Think of them as the link between Widdlz and Mechz! Each month will see the release of a new PakRat launching exclusively through the MunzPak this year.

Lumberjack PakRat
Points
  • Deploy: 500
  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 100 – 200
Additional Info

They will remain on the map until they have been captured 10 times. When you purchase a MunzPak, you will receive a fully-built Lumberjack PakRat that auto-deploys. You will also be able to rebuild it when you have earned enough Twigz in the future. For now, the Lumberjack PakRat will be available in this month’s MunzPak only — meaning the deadline to get one is 23:59 MHQ on Sunday, May 31st.

You can find these lighthearted loggers at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:


Badges

Deploying a Lumberjack PakRat will earn you the corresponding Deploy badge, which you can see below.

🐨 May Gargoyle 🪽

An adorable new gargoyle has been mounted on the roof! Hailing from Australia, you can add the NEW Koala-Goyle to your collection by completing your capture streak next month!

If you completed your April capture streak, prepare to receive the Hog-Goyle Skin (and corresponding badge) in early May. Read on to learn more about the latest addition to the Gargoyle family!

April Gargoyle Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a base Gargoyle yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $9.

As a reminder, this is how to have a permanent Gargoyle on your account next year:

  • Own at least 8 Gargoyles by the end of the year.
    • Each month, the price of a Gargoyle will decrease by $1.
    • However, players can only purchase 1 Gargoyle every 28 days.

May Gargoyle Details

What Gargoyle awaits in May? The Koala-Goyle, who’s ready to chow down on some minty eucalypti! It is a temporary POB that will remain on the map as long as the players with permanent Gargoyles continue to use it.

Koala-Goyle
Points
  • Stone Gargoyle
    • Deploy: 500
    • Capture: 250
    • CapOn: 300
  • Cracking Gargoyle
    • Capture: 250
      CapOn: 300
  • Freed Gargoyle
    • Capture: 300
    • Stone Gargoyle Deployer ONLY (Main Gargoyle Owner):
      • Deploy: 500
      • CapOn: 600
    • Cracking Gargoyle Capper ONLY (Temp Gargoyle Co-Owner):
      • CapOn: 300
Additional Info
  • Available for multi-capture
  • Non-blastable
  • Attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets
  • Filters: “All Limited-Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials”

As stated earlier, you’ll need to complete next month’s (May’s) capture streak to earn this skin. Once the skin is awarded in June, you can change the skin on the Gargoyle to this one at any point! If you need some help refer to our Help Guide article for the instructions on swapping skins!

You can find this sleepy statue at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Remember, instead of scatters, Gargoyles introduce a new dual-ownership mechanic which will benefit both deployers and cappers!

  • After 4 captures, the Stone Gargoyle will turn into a Cracking Gargoyle
  • After 1 more capture, the Cracking Gargoyle will turn into a Freed Gargoyle, which is owned by both the deployer AND capper! This means both players will earn CapOn points!
    • NOTE: Only the Main Gargoyle Owner will get credit for the deploy. The Temporary Co-Owner will not see a deploy on their side, but instead will see earned CapOn points whenever the co-owned bouncer is captured.
  • After 5 captures, the Freed Gargoyle will turn back into a Stone Gargoyle

Badges

As a reminder, Gargoyles will have 4 associated badge lines:

  • Unique type deploy badges — you’ll need to earn each month’s skin by keeping your streak up!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned Gargoyle!
  • Overall deploy badges — the more Gargoyles you deploy, the merrier!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many Gargoyles as you can find!

Check out the unique deploy and capture badges linked with the Koala-Goyle below!

Free the Koala-Goyle and you’ll be taking a step towards safeguarding biodiversity!

⚔️🌮🌸 Force, Fiesta & Flowers BVGs ✨

Get ready to celebrate, because a brand-new wave of BVGs is on the way—and this time, we’re giving you a head start! We’re launching four new Bouncing Virtual Gardens, each inspired by fun seasonal moments and fan-favorite celebrations. From galactic battles and festive fiestas to taco traditions and heartfelt blooms, these designs are ready to bring fresh energy to maps around the world. To help everyone plan ahead, we’re once again giving a full 24-hour heads-up before these BVGs go live—so you’ll have plenty of time to coordinate, purchase, and prepare before the bouncing begins!

Whether you’re channeling the Force with the May The 4th BVG, shaking things up with the Cinco De Mayo BVG, celebrating tacos on the perfectly-timed Taco Tuesday BVG, or showing some love with the Mother’s Day BVG, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Once the gardens start bouncing by Monday, May 4th, it will bounce for 6 weeks, meaning until 23:59 MHQ on June 15th!

As before, each garden will launch at a different time to give players around the world a fair shot at deploying. A single Bouncing Virtual pin costs $5.00, and each player may purchase up to 1 BVC per garden. Check out this pin that received 454 caps from one of the first BVG sold. That’s 22,700 CapOn points in just over 6 weeks from a single deploy!

Once all BVGs go live, you’ll be able to find them all in the Bouncing Virtual Gardens Collection here: https://store.freezetag.com/collections/bouncing-virtual-gardens

👀 BVG Sneak Peek!

Remember that you can earn a badge for capturing all the pins in a BVG, each shown below:

⏰ BVG Launch Schedule

DEADLINE: Since BVGs must be full before they can start to bounce, we will automatically fill all remaining open BVG spots above with staff account deploys after Monday, May 4th at 11:45 MHQ! These BVGs will be scheduled to start bouncing by Monday, May 4th by 12:00 MHQ!

🪂 Other BVG Reminders

  • BVGs will bounce to Munzee Events and other popular locations around the world! Whether you’re attending an event or just exploring the map, you’ll have a chance to cap these colorful creations.
  • If you haven’t received a BVG’s capture badge, please do the following BEFORE e-mailing support@munzee.com:
    • Make sure you captured ALL of the BVG’s pins — Sam has added a feature on CuppaZee that makes this easier — check out the post about it HERE!
    • If you are confident that you’ve captured all of the pins, please also make sure you’ve waited 1 full MHQ day
      • ALL badges take varying amounts of time to award — sometimes they appear instantly, and other times they can take a few hours. Most DO appear within 24 hours though!

Grab your pins now before these gardens are stuffed full!

Munzee on!

May 2026 Badges

Your Guild can earn monthly badges by reaching certain levels in Gauntlet Games. But remember, you only get a badge (and rewards) if the whole guild reaches that level. In May, there are six badges up for grabs, and with each progressing badge you’ll earn an emblem showing how far you made it through that month’s Gauntlet! Here’s a sneak peek at the Level 1 badge:

*The Baby Monkey tPOB will be available to claim as a special trade in the Premium section of the redeem store beginning May 3rd. Cost will be 0 zeds (that’s right, ZERO zeds). The Baby Monkey will be auto-deployed on your account when redeemed.

Need a Wishing Well near you??? Click here for help on how to get one.

Older (but still important) reminders:

QRates must be found during the current gauntlet game (after 00:10 on May 3rd) — give the system a few minutes to fully switch into the new game.

#MunzeeOn

Note: Gauntlet Game requirements may update before May 3 and we reserve the right to do so. The final requirements and rewards will always be shown in the app.

If you read all the way to the bottom, here is a Pro Reward Tip just for YOU!

Check out the redeem options on CuppaZee Gardens. If you don’t like the physical items received this month, many can be swapped to virtual deploys in gardens. Or trade them in the Redeem store.
For those players who want more physical deploys in your area to attract bouncers, keep those physical credits and deploy them! #PlayYourWay (within the Code of Conduct 😜)
There are many more options available to help you meet Gauntlet Games requirements this month if you search for them! Good luck!

👋 Goodbye “Clan Wars”, Hello “Gauntlet Games”! ⚔️

All good things must come to an end, and after 13 years of more than 150 battles we are retiring Clan Wars and ushering in a new era of co-operative gameplay to the world of Munzee! Say hello to Gauntlet Games, a new and improved take on our monthly team-based challenges. We know this change may come as a shock, but while some of this refresh may just be cosmetic we’re excited to introduce new gameplay features, and explore even more options in the future!

Read on to learn more about this decision, and stay tuned for 15:00 MHQ today for the first ever Gauntlet Guide. Let the Games begin!


Why are you changing “Clan Wars” to “Gauntlet Games”?

Although we embrace the competitive spirit of our players, when internally discussing how to best grow one of the biggest aspects of the game we approached the purpose of co-op gameplay from a different aspect. While “Wars” and “Battles” may encourage fierce combat, we found what really drove the success of these monthly competitions was the camaraderie of teams working together to accomplish the goals our staff has challenged them with. 

There has never been any particular battle dynamic between opposing Clans, so we have decided to highlight the teamwork of our newly minted “Guilds” with this new iteration of co-op gameplay. We want to emphasize that the Gauntlet Games are something players of all skill levels can aspire to, whether they’re casual players or dedicated Level 6 completionists! In other words, the purpose isn’t primarily Clan vs Clan (although peruse the Clan Leaderboard if you dare!), but instead the members of your guild working together to overcome the Gauntlet Guardian’s increasingly difficult challenges!


What exactly is changing?

The first update related to the introduction of Gauntlet Games is largely cosmetic, but expect more changes in the coming months! For now the main changes you’ll notice are:

  • Mentions of “Clan Wars” have been updated to “Gauntlet Games”
  • Mentions of “Clan Wars Requirements” have been updated to “Gauntlet Guide”
  • Mentions of “Clan Weapons” have been updated to “Gauntlet Weapons”
  • Mentions of “Clans” have been updated to “Guilds”

Alongside these copy changes, we’ve updated art assets that reference the old Clan Wars branding as well, which means you’ll see various new logos for Gauntlet Games in place of old Clan Wars ones. 

We’ve also polished the base Gauntlet Weapon pin images with the introduction of an ALL NEW Weapon Forging feature you can read about further down in this post. These base designs may not look drastically different from before, but they are definitely a little sleeker, and set the stage for some striking new forms when forged!

And lastly, the monthly Gauntlet Games level badges will be sporting a new look as well — keep an eye out for the May 2026 Gauntlet Guide post for a sneak peek!


Where can I expect to see these changes?

There are a number of areas in the app and website that will be updated in the coming days, including the Clan Wars Hub, the Profile and Badges sections, the Freeze Tag Online Store, Munzee Blog, the Munzee Help Guide and more.

Of course, this is not an exhaustive list, and although we are making a number of changes live, note that some changes will happen over time. So if you notice an area in the app or online that still needs to be updated, please give us some time to get everything cleaned up before sending in support tickets.


When can I expect to see these changes?

We will be updating most areas of the app and its related websites over the next few days. During this transition period, you may still find old references to “Clan Wars”, “Clan Weapons”, and “Clans”, or you may still see old Clan Wars logos and other images. Please refrain from creating support tickets or commenting on our social posts about these old references / images as they are most likely already on our list of things to update — we just need the time to update them.

Of course, if a significant amount of time has passed and a certain area still hasn’t been updated, perhaps we did truly miss it. So, if you do notice an area we missed after May 28, 2026 — please do let us know!


How can I participate in Gauntlet Games?

Whether you’re in a guild of 1 or a guild of up to 10, you can play your way and strive to meet the requirements set for your preferred level in the current month’s Gauntlet Games. All you need to do is either create or join a guild! Here are our Help Guide articles that will walk you through the process — again, please note that it may still use the old Clan Wars terminology depending on how soon you visit these links after this blog is published, but the processes should still be the same:

We’ll be posting the Gauntlet Guide for May at 15:00 MHQ today (as we usually do each month), so keep an eye out for it!


Anything else I need to know about Gauntlet Games?

One of the most exciting features we’re launching today is ALL NEW Elemental Gauntlet Weapons! These game pieces are an extension to the current line of Gauntlet Weapons that can now be converted and upgraded using Elemental Mysteries! Fuse all 7 weapon types with Fire, Ice, Air, and Void Mysteries for MORE POINTS, and bonus scatters. 

This new Weapon Forging feature is available NOW and you can learn all about it on the Munzee Help Guide HERE!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember that converting a previously deployed Gauntlet Weapon will update the deploy points on the original date deployed. It will not award points on the day it was converted, unless it was deployed earlier that day. If you want to earn new Gauntlet Weapon points on the current day, you’ll need to deploy a new Gauntlet Weapon or use the SWAP feature!


Gauntlet Games Launch Sale!

To celebrate this new feature, and to give everyone a leg up before the first Gauntlet Games kicks off on May 3rd, we have a number of sales and bonus opportunities so you can forge to your heart’s content. First, enjoy 25% off all Elemental Mysteries in the online store from NOW until Sunday May 10, 2026 at 23:59 MHQ. Visit the collection HERE: https://store.freezetag.com/collections/elemental-mysteries

For the first time ever we’re also selling a Gauntlet Weapons Pack featuring one of each weapon type. So if you’ve never earned any Gauntlet Weapons (formerly known as Clan Weapons) before take advantage of this opportunity to start forging TODAY! Available in the online store HERE: https://store.freezetag.com/products/gauntlet-weapons-pack

Plus look forward to a special deploy event kicking off next week, where you can earn weapons for deploying certain types which will run from Sunday May 3, 2026 at 00:01 MHQ until Sunday May 10, 2026 at 23:59 MHQ. Stay tuned!


Need Some Help?

We know this is a lot of information to consume, so Seemyshell and Rob have put together this handy video to walk you through the major adjustments, as well as highlighting the new Weapon Forging feature! Check it out below! 

Munzee on!

🪰 April 2026 GOTM Winners 🌻

This month, the theme was “Earth & Environment“, and your garden designs definitely highlighted the beauty of nature!

Don’t forget — the CuppaZee Gardens Tool is your go-to resource for dreaming up your own designs or finding the perfect spot to deploy! Whether you’re going for grandeur or keeping it light, it’s the best place to start your garden adventure.

Without further ado, let’s jump right in to celebrate the winners for April:

🪰 RUM Dragonfly in Johnstown, Pa. designed by grubsneerg in Richland, PA, US
The metallic sheen of the Virtual RUMs is quite effective in replicating the gossamer wings and reflective body of a real dragonfly! The extra touches, such as the outline of Onyxes around the wings, and the strategically placed Citrines, Flat RUMs, Night Vision Goggles, Peas, and Shamrocks add some dimension that really brings this garden to life! Lastly, we love that the Virtual Garden POI was incorporated as the end of its tail!

🌻 Sundridge Sunflower designed by CapJaxCrew in Parry Sound, Ontario, CA
Looks like this sunflower has a solar panel installed! With the ring of Electric Mysteries around the center, there are many Virtuals nearby where the Charge scatters are sure to land! The checkerboard pattern of Crossbows and Virtual Chestnuts give off a similar effect to the many florets that give the sunflower its characteristic look. An impressive collection of Virtual Masters of Disguise form the stem and leaves.

✨ Special Badges for All Players Who Deployed Within the Winning GOTM!

🌱 Plan Ahead for GOTM Glory!

We know how much effort and creativity goes into designing amazing gardens, and we want to give you a head start! With the themes for the rest of the year now revealed, you have plenty of time to plan your designs, gather the right Munzees, and even recruit friends and family to help fill out your vision. The best gardens often come together when players work together — so start brainstorming early and get those creative juices flowing! We can’t wait to see the incredible designs you come up with — and who knows, maybe one of them will take the top spot in a future GOTM!

💪 May 2026 GOTM Theme – “Health & Heroes

Inspired by National Physical Fitness & Sports Month and Memorial Day (May 25).

Inspired by National Camping Month and Great Outdoors Month.
Picture tents, campfires, fish, or mountains. Anything that sparks a summer adventure — hiking trails, kayaks, or even a picnic spread!

Inspired by Independence Day (July 4) and National Ice Cream Day (July 19).
Stars, stripes, fireworks, or cones stacked high with scoops of ice cream! Perfect for showing off patriotism and summer fun.

🤝 August 2026 GOTM Theme – “Friendship & Community

Inspired by National Friendship Day (Aug 2) and Family Fun Month.
Hands holding, stick figures, family icons, or even smiling emojis. Celebrate the joy of connections, bonding, and togetherness.

Inspired by Labor Day (Sept 7) and National Literacy Month.

Inspired by Halloween (Oct 31) and National Arts & Humanities Month.

🦃 November 2026 GOTM Theme – “Gratitude & Giving

Inspired by Thanksgiving (Nov 26) and National Philanthropy Day (Nov 15).
Think cornucopias, turkeys, helping hands, or food drives. Celebrate generosity, thankfulness, and giving back.

❄️ December 2026 GOTM Theme – “Joy & Traditions

Inspired by National Cookie Day (Dec 4) and the holiday season.
Cookies, ornaments, snowflakes, candles, or wrapped gifts. Anything that brings cheer and captures holiday traditions around the world.

🕵️ Secret ZeeOps – Gauntlet Gateway (April 2026) 🐂

Can you succeed where countless adventurers have failed and escape the gauntlet alive? An ALL NEW Secret ZeeOps is now available in the ZeeOps Hub for the usual cost of 1,500 Zeds — and now you can purchase it at any time! In November 2025, we pushed an update to make ALL Secret ZeeOps available — we hope you enjoy these expanded options!

Agents, you have been called upon by Cappy the Unicorn to aid in his quest: to enter a famously perilous temple and retrieve the treasure it contains. The first challenge is finding the temple — it won’t be easy, despite the number of victims it has already claimed. On top of that, the layout of the temple is completely unknown — preparing for this mission will require a lot of contingency plans.

Completing a series of missions will unlock new levels in this operation. There are three levels, each with five missions. If you conquer every mission in Operation: Gauntlet Gateway, you’ll earn a cool new badge, the NEW M1N0T4UR Mech (info below), and more exciting rewards listed in the app!

NEW Mech Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, M1N0T4UR is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 15 times.

M1N0T4UR
Points
  • Deploy: 350
  • Capture: 230-330
  • CapOn: 100-200
  • Hollow (Crushed): 500
Landing Pads

This beastly bull charges to the landing pads listed above every 6 hours or when captured.

This mech will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture this mech on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same mech visits you. This mech is non-blastable. It will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access this mech by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

When M1N0T4UR is captured, it will scatter up to 3 Gauntlet Gate Keys on the Mech owner’s account.

Gauntlet Gate Key
Points
  • Capture: 30-50
  • CapOn: 5-30

These scatters will be visible to any player and expire after 120 minutes. They have a capture radius of 300 feet. Since they are passive deploys, these scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity.

Badges

As with other Munzee Mechz, the badge for deploying M1N0T4UR depicts the Blueprints, and is shown below:

For those who capture M1N0T4UR, a badge awaits. As there’s just one badge in this category, we’ll keep it secret, for now.

On behalf of MHQ, we thank you for your continued service.
