How to Get the Free Crowbar in Arena Breakout Season 13

The Crowbar is free — and so is your first loadout if you top up smart. Grab Arena Breakout Bonds at Topuplist during the Double Bonds event, and you double your currency to pair with your free melee on Topuplist.

Introduction: Your Free Melee Weapon Awaits

Arena Breakout's 3rd Anniversary brings players a gift that costs literally nothing: the Crowbar, a brand-new melee weapon available exclusively during Season 13. No Bonds. No Koen. No real-money purchase. Just event participation and a Redemption Card exchanged at the right store.

But free does not mean automatic. The Crowbar is tied to the Anniversary Treasure Hunt event, and if you do not complete the requirements before Season 13 ends, the weapon becomes unobtainable. Unlike login rewards that sit in your inbox waiting to be claimed, the Crowbar requires active participation across multiple event objectives — daily logins, raid completions, mission milestones, and cumulative progress tracking. This guide walks you through every step — what the Crowbar is, how to earn the Redemption Card, where to exchange it, how to maximize your progress rate, and the deadline you cannot ignore.

What Is the Crowbar?

The Crowbar is a melee weapon — Arena Breakout's first free melee addition through an anniversary event. It is a permanent inventory item once unlocked and functions like any other melee weapon in the game. In tight spaces, when ammo runs dry, or when stealth is paramount, a melee weapon provides an option that does not require reloading or reveal your position with gunfire.

As a limited anniversary item, the Crowbar also carries cosmetic and collection value. It signals participation in the game's 3rd Anniversary — a badge of veteran status visible in your loadout. Unlike standard-issue melee weapons available through regular progression or the in-game shop, the Crowbar is exclusively tied to the Season 13 anniversary event, meaning it cannot be purchased, traded, or obtained through any other means. Once Season 13 ends, the Crowbar becomes a legacy item that newer players will not have access to.

In terms of combat performance, the Crowbar functions as a standard melee weapon with balanced damage and swing speed. It occupies the melee weapon equipment slot and does not consume ammunition, making it a reliable emergency fallback when your magazine runs dry in close-quarters combat. While it will not match the stopping power of a shotgun or SMG at point-blank range, a well-timed Crowbar swing can finish a wounded opponent or eliminate an unaware enemy without the audio signature that gunfire produces — a tactical advantage in modes where sound discipline matters.

Step 1: Participate in the Anniversary Treasure Hunt

The Anniversary Treasure Hunt is the central event hub for all 3rd Anniversary rewards during Season 13. This is where you earn the currency that buys your Crowbar, and it is accessible to every player from the moment they log in after the update.

To access it:

Open Arena Breakout after the Season 13 update (July 16, 2026).

Navigate to the Event menu from the main lobby.

Select the Anniversary Treasure Hunt event.

Review the available objectives and reward track.

The event runs throughout Season 13. There is no entry fee, no special mode requirement, and no equipment threshold. Every player with access to the game can participate. The Treasure Hunt interface displays a progress tracker showing how close you are to your next Redemption Card, along with a list of specific objectives that contribute the most progress. Objectives refresh periodically and may include tasks such as extracting from specific maps, achieving a certain number of eliminations, completing raids within a time limit, or looting high-value items. Prioritizing the highest-value objectives each day maximizes your Redemption Card earning rate.

Step 2: Earn the 3-Year Anniversary Redemption Card

The 3-Year Anniversary Redemption Card is the currency you need. It is earned through cumulative progress in the Anniversary Treasure Hunt event.

What Counts Toward the Redemption Card

Based on the official Season 13 update announcement, Redemption Cards are earned through:

Daily login streaks — logging in consistently throughout the event period

Raid completions — successfully extracting from raids (any map, any mode)

Event-specific missions — objectives listed in the Treasure Hunt event page

Cumulative milestone progress — total play time, total Koen earned, total kills

The exact number of Redemption Cards earned and the specific mission requirements are visible in-game. Check the event UI for your current progress toward the next Card.

The Crowbar costs one Redemption Card. If you also want the Molten Gold H416 skin or outfits, you need additional Cards — each item costs one Card.

Playing with a regular squad significantly accelerates Redemption Card progress. Squad members can share mission progress, revive each other to prevent failed extractions that waste progress, and coordinate objective completion. If your squad splits objectives — one player focuses on eliminations while another targets loot milestones — the entire team benefits from the combined progress toward individual Cards. For solo players, shorter maps like Farm are the most efficient option, as faster raid cycles mean more objective completions per play session.

Step 3: Visit the Treasure Hunt Exchange Store

Once you have a Redemption Card:

Open the Anniversary Treasure Hunt Exchange Store — this is a separate shop accessible from the event menu.

Browse the available items. The Crowbar is listed alongside the Molten Gold H416 gold skin and multiple outfit options.

Select the Crowbar as your exchange choice.

One Card = one item. If you have multiple Cards, you can claim multiple items across separate exchanges. The store remains open throughout Season 13. It is worth noting that the Exchange Store interface clearly labels each item with its cost and your current Card balance, so there is no ambiguity about what you can afford. The Crowbar is typically displayed prominently at the top of the store alongside the Molten Gold H416, making it easy to locate.

Step 4: Exchange and Claim Your Crowbar

After selecting the Crowbar:

Confirm the exchange.

The Redemption Card is consumed.

The Crowbar is added to your inventory immediately.

Equip it from your melee weapon slot in any loadout.

There is no delivery delay, no inbox claim step, and no additional requirement after the exchange. Once you complete the transaction, the Crowbar is yours permanently. You can equip it immediately from the loadout menu and use it in your very next raid. The weapon appears in your melee weapon inventory alongside any other melee weapons you own, and it is not consumed or lost upon death — like all permanent inventory items, it remains available regardless of raid outcomes.

If you want Koen to run the raids that earn you Redemption Cards faster, an Arena Breakout Koen top-up at Topuplist keeps you geared for every extraction — and the current Double Bonds event doubles your value at Topuplist.

What Else Can You Get With Redemption Cards?

The Anniversary Treasure Hunt Exchange Store contains multiple items beyond the Crowbar. Each costs one Redemption Card, and the store updates its inventory as new phases of the anniversary unlock, so checking periodically ensures you do not miss newly added options:

Item	Type
Crowbar	Melee Weapon
Molten Gold H416	Gold Weapon Skin
Multiple Outfits	Character Appearance
Additional Cosmetics	Various

If you earn multiple Cards, you can claim the Crowbar plus one or more additional rewards. The H416 gold skin is the most valuable alternative if you prioritize weapon cosmetics over melee — but since Cards can be earned through continued play, you are not forced to choose if you stay active throughout the season.

Claiming every anniversary reward takes time — but funding your raids does not have to. With a Bonds top-up at Topuplist, you convert discounted currency into Koen for entry fees and gear, leaving more playtime for earning Redemption Cards through Topuplist.

Deadlines: When the Crowbar Becomes Unobtainable

The Anniversary Treasure Hunt and its Exchange Store are tied to Season 13. When Season 13 ends:

The Treasure Hunt event closes.

The Exchange Store closes.

Unspent Redemption Cards become unusable.

The Crowbar is no longer obtainable.

Arena Breakout has not announced an exact Season 13 end date, but seasons typically run 2–3 months. Starting from July 16, a conservative estimate places the season end between mid-September and mid-October 2026. Check the in-game Season countdown for the precise date.

Do not wait. Anniversary event items in live-service games rarely return, and there is no precedent for Arena Breakout re-releasing previous anniversary rewards. The game has now completed three anniversary cycles, and items from the first and second anniversaries have not been made available through any subsequent event, battle pass, or shop. Treat Season 13 as your only opportunity. Even if you have limited playtime, earning a single Redemption Card is achievable within a week of consistent casual play — there is no excuse to miss out on a permanent melee weapon that costs nothing but your time.

Tips to Get Your Redemption Card Faster

Log in daily. Many event tracks include consecutive login bonuses. Even on days you cannot play full raids, logging in to claim the daily reward counts toward progress.

Run shorter raids. Maps like Farm offer faster extraction cycles than Valley or Armory. If your goal is raid completion count, prioritize speed over loot value.

Play with a squad. Coordinated teams extract more consistently than solo players. Squad wipes cost you the raid completion credit — a reliable team minimizes failed extractions.

Focus on event missions. The Treasure Hunt page lists specific objectives. Prioritize these over general gameplay — they contribute the most progress per time invested.

Check the Exchange Store early. Know exactly which item you want before you earn the Card. This prevents hesitation and accidental exchanges.

Track your progress daily. The event UI updates in real-time. Monitoring your Redemption Card progress helps you pace your play and avoid last-minute crunch.

Save Koen for entry fees. If you run multiple raids to complete event objectives, the 15,000 Koen entry fees add up. Keeping a reserve ensures you never pause progress due to insufficient funds.

Use the Crowbar immediately. Once claimed, equip it in your melee slot and test it in a low-stakes raid. Familiarity with its swing timing and range makes it a more effective emergency weapon when you need it.

Conclusion: Do Not Miss the Free Melee

The Crowbar is the simplest reward to understand and the easiest to miss if you procrastinate. Participate in the Anniversary Treasure Hunt. Earn a Redemption Card. Visit the Exchange Store. Claim your weapon. All before Season 13 ends.

No currency. No purchase. No RNG. Just play the game, earn the Card, exchange it, and equip your Crowbar. As the first free melee weapon offered through an Arena Breakout anniversary event, the Crowbar represents a unique milestone in the game's reward history. It is not overpowered and it will not replace your primary weapon, but it is a permanent addition to your arsenal that costs absolutely nothing except the time you were going to spend playing anyway. Do not let the deadline slip past — the Anniversary Treasure Hunt is live now, and every raid you complete brings you one step closer to claiming your free melee. For players who want everything the anniversary offers — free Crowbar, gold skins, and maxed-out Koen — Topuplist has your Arena Breakout top-up needs covered at every tier.
