If every operator skin in Bodycam shows “N/A” instead of a price, you’re not bugged: the real-money shop is disabled since the v0.8 “Locked & Loaded” update, deliberately. The developers turned it off, previously purchased skins are safe, and the store returns “at a later stage.” Here’s the full situation.
The Official Status
From Reissad Studio’s v0.8 announcement, verbatim policy: “The shop for real-money purchases is disabled in this update and will return at a later stage. Every skin you have already purchased remains yours and will be restored when you first connect after the update.”
So:
- Already bought skins? Yours, restored on first login post-update.
- Want to buy now? You can’t; the N/A price tags are the disabled storefront, not a bug.
- When’s it back? No date given.
Before the shutdown, skins ran around the $4.99 mark, and there’s no indication pricing changes when it returns.
What You CAN Earn Right Now
The cosmetics pause doesn’t stop progression:
- Weapons and ~400 attachments unlock through Reissad Points (our RP guide covers the rates)
- Wingman rank climbs through the 2v2 ladder
- The new HUB lobby’s armory and attachment rooms give your unlocks somewhere to be admired
There is no operator roster with gameplay unlock conditions; operators are cosmetic identities, which is why the skin shop is the whole “operator unlock” story.
Why a Studio Turns Off Its Own Revenue
Reading between the official lines: a two-person team just shipped its biggest update ever (record 38,958 concurrent players), rebuilt the menu into an explorable HUB, and had four patches to push in nine days. A monetization system is a support surface, and they cut it rather than run it badly mid-launch. Their suggested alternative while it’s down, in their own words: “the best way to support the game is by gifting the game to your friends,” which, given the no-party-system situation, is also how your friends get into your lobby anyway.
Frequently Asked Questions
My purchased skin isn’t showing after the update. The restoration triggers on connecting; if it truly hasn’t appeared across sessions, that’s a support-ticket case rather than policy.
Will there be earnable (non-paid) skins? Nothing announced; today’s earnable track is weapons, attachments, and rank.
Is there a battle pass? No, and none announced. RP progression is the whole economy right now.
Do skins affect visibility or gameplay? Bodycam’s whole aesthetic is uniform photorealism; cosmetics stay within it, and no pay-for-camouflage nonsense has been part of the shop.
