The Tough Break Update was a major update that introduced 4 new weapon collections, 4 community-created new maps, and 3 new taunts. It introduced the Tough Break Campaign, an event taking place around Smissmass which allows players to compete in 26 skill-based challenges to unlock one-of-a-kind weapons and exclusive weapon and cosmetic cases. To participate in the Tough Break Update, you must purchase the Tough Break Campaign Pass.
