Human Combat Arena Highscore Challenge
The arena is open, the gloves are off, and it’s time to see how far you can push your skills.
This is a full-on highscore chase in the Human Combat Arena, where you fight against weapon wielding enemies and try to squeeze every last point out of a run. Clean execution, smart risk-taking, and adapting to pressure will matter. If you want to compete for prizes, this is your moment.
At the same time, this event is one of the most valuable ways to help us shape Wild Life’s combat. Your runs, your clips, and your feedback help us spot what works, what breaks, what’s unclear, and what needs tuning.
The competition starts today, and final results are locked on January 4th.
For the latest notes and details, open the Info Box inside the Combat Arena level.

Each winner also receives their event role until the next combat event.
Special category (extra roles)
The highest overall highscore among all weapon classes submitted will get the special role: Arena Grandmaster
At the end of the event, we will reveal another hidden special category, and the winner receives an additional special Discord role.
How winners are chosen
This is where it gets spicy:
We track performance across multiple weapon-related categories
We will NOT announce which weapons or categories count for winning in advance
This is intentional, so the meta does not get solved on day one and players stay creative
You can only win one prize category
If you qualify for multiple, your highest placing counts and the next eligible player moves up
Entry requirements
To keep judging fair and simple:
Video proof is mandatory
Your submission must include a directly watchable video link (YouTube, Vimeo etc)
No login required
No downloads required
Direct file transfers are not accepted
Analytics must be ON while recording your entry
Accept full analytics on first start or enable it manually in OptionsYour video must clearly show the final results screen
Recommended upload: YouTube (Unlisted) works best, but any platform is fine if it is directly playable in a browser.
Rules
Finding an exploit is useful feedback and we want to see it so we can fix it
However, using an exploit for score advantage may disqualify your competition entry
The goal is a fair and square challengeKeep posts SFW
NSFW is allowed only for clear bug or glitch evidence, with warning and timestampPlease use the in-game Give Feedback button after playing
This is the easiest and most valuable way to help us iterate
Now go claim your score. Push your best weapon, find your best route, and set a run that forces everyone else to answer it.
Lastly, we want to thank every one of you for the amazing support you have given us this year. We are very happy with the development and how it's going and it's all thanks to you. 2026 will be the most important year for Wild Life ever, the year where we plan to release the game and where it all will be coming together. We hope to see you all next year for this exciting phase.
For now, our team will go into their well earned vacations, spend Christmas with their families, hopefully get some deep recharging rest and we will see you all again early next year to tackle the beast.
We wish you all a merry Christmas, a happy new year and hope you also have a great time :)
Much love,
- Wild Life Team
