Ever since they debuted in Season 8: Mayhem, Explosive Holds have become an iconic part of the Kings Canyon map. These miniature vaults only open if you put a grenade (Arc Star, Thermite Grenade, or Frag Grenade) in the door slot. Many players have upped their loot game with the goods inside. It makes sense that the Explosive Hold got a minor update alongside its map getting a major update. Let’s take a look.

While the loot inside of Explosive Holds isn’t as good as it was in past seasons, the chance to snatch the new Laser Sights attachment, and the other good inside may still bring players to the Explosive Holds. Explosive Holds also make good cover in certain situations.
