New Sobek City is the second Cairo map at launch. EA places it in a construction yard on the outskirts of Cairo and describes fighting across construction sites and sand dunes. Its Conquest Combat Zone is named Quicksands.
EA lists tanks and attack helicopters as the vehicles on the map. Wikipedia’s season history says New Sobek City was reworked in Season 5 (October 2026), though the details of that rework are not given in the source the wiki used.

With tanks and attack helicopters both on the field, the map pairs open ground with the construction sites around it. EA’s description does not break down objectives or routes, so this page does not either. Add confirmed tactics here once they are sourced.
