Weather and lighting effects are a free feature that released at the start of Season 3 on June 23, 2020.

Weather Changes
Weather has a chance to change on any outdoor map, and can affect visibility in-game.

Clear
Clear is the default weather effect in most maps. Clear provides the most visibility of any weather, making it the best weather from a strategic point of view.

Lighting
Each map has a chance to change the map lighting, such as day or night.

Day
Day is the default lighting of some maps, such as Empire in Flames or Athel Yenlui. Day provides the most visibility of any lighting, making it the best lighting effect from a strategic point of view.

Night
Night is the default lighting of some maps, such as The Screaming Bell. Night has lower visibility than day, but is still fairly visible due to the heavy abundance of torches and the brightness of moon lighting.
