Article

Bonds are the premium currency in Arena Breakout: Infinite. Koen is the money you loot, earn and lose in raids; Bonds are what you buy, and what Morefun hands out during events. They sit on the cosmetic-and-convenience side of the line — the game is free to play and the shooting part stays free.

What Bonds buy

  • Cosmetics — weapon skins, outfits, charms, name cards, backgrounds. Collab characters (Leon and Ada from the Resident Evil 4 collab) came with free draws at level 30, then Bonds.
  • Battle passes — the Premium Battle Pass each season, and its store tickets.
  • Elite cards — timed accounts perks (the anniversary gave a Basic Elite Trial Card; premium versions are Bond purchases).
  • Secure-case trials — the 3×3 case trial cards in event rewards are the same items the store sells.
  • Gifting — since Season 6 you can gift store items to friends (level 15+, friends for 7+ days). If the recipient already owns the item it returns to you as Bonds.

What Bonds do not buy: weapons, ammo, armour or keys. Those are Koen, and the money guide is where to start on that side.

How to top up

In the in-game store, on the client you play on. That is the only official route: the Steam listing for the game has no DLC at all, so there are no "Bond pack" DLCs to buy through Steam's store page, and Epic works the same way. Prices vary by region and platform, which is why we do not print a price table — check the store in your own client, and remember that regional prices are tied to the account's region.

Two warnings, both from Morefun's own enforcement notices:

  • Third-party "cheap Bonds" sellers work through stolen cards or region abuse. The measures against illegal trading apply to the buyer's account, not just the seller's.
  • Account sales and boosting are the other half of that market and get the same treatment. If a site is selling you an account "with Bonds," it is selling you a ban.

Free Bonds — what Morefun has actually given out

Every one of these came from an official Steam announcement:

  • First anniversary (17–29 April 2026): 4,500 Bonds — "the highest amount ever offered" — through daily logins and challenges, guaranteed for all players, plus a 3×3 secure-case trial and S-tier skins.
  • Resident Evil 4 collab (from 24 July 2026): up to 1,500 Bonds for logging in three days, plus golden gift boxes, universal keys and a 15-day elite card.
  • Kamona Summer Festival (August 2026): a $500 Bonds prize pool for completing seven daily Discord check-ins, with premium elite cards and Season 6 premium passes alongside.
  • Mentor Program: Bonds are listed among the possible rewards for active mentors — see the community guide for how to apply.
  • Red Drops Fest: "Claim Free Bonds" was the headline of the November event.

The pattern is obvious: every season and every collab opens with a login-reward window, and the seasons page is where the next one will be announced. Nothing that calls itself a "Bonds code" is one — the codes guide explains what the PC game does and does not have.

Answered from the data above

Questions players ask

What are Bonds in Arena Breakout: Infinite?
The paid currency. They buy cosmetics, battle passes, elite cards, secure-case trials and character draws. Weapons, ammo and armour are bought with Koen, the in-game money.
How do I top up Bonds?
Through the in-game store on whichever client you use (Steam, Epic or the official launcher). There are no Bond packs sold as Steam DLC — the Steam listing has no DLC at all — so any 'Steam pack' offer is third-party.
How do I get free Bonds?
Login and event rewards Morefun announces on Steam: 4,500 Bonds at the first anniversary, 1,500 during the Resident Evil collab, a $500 Bonds pool for the Kamona Festival Discord check-in, and Bonds among the Mentor Program rewards.
Are cheap Bonds from third-party sites safe?
No. They are bought with stolen payment methods or through region tricks, and Morefun's illegal-trading measures include account penalties. Top up in-game or not at all.
