People usually aren’t actually “seeing through” gas in Arena Breakout: Infinite ; what looks like that is usually a mix of game mechanics and visibility differences. Gas can cough and damage players, but it doesn’t always fully block vision, and some players may have protection or better sightlines when they push through it.

What’s probably happening

  • Nebulizer or gas protection. One common explanation is that the player has a Nebulizer or similar protection, which can let them stay in gas longer and push through it.
  • Gas is semi-visual, not total cover. Community reports say gas makes the screen green and hazy, but it doesn’t necessarily make targets impossible to see.
  • Visibility settings and lighting. Some players also use visibility-focused graphics settings or lighting conditions that make silhouettes easier to track, even in haze.
  • Kill cam can be misleading. What looks like “perfect vision” in a replay may be affected by the way the game records the encounter rather than the exact real-time view.

Practical takeaway

If you’re getting pushed through gas, assume the opponent either has gas protection, is timing the push, or is using the gas mostly to force movement rather than to create true invisibility. In other words, gas is more of a pressure tool than a complete visual wall.

What to try

  1. Use gas to displace enemies, not to fully hide yourself.
  2. Watch for footsteps and coughing cues, since gas gives away position.
  1. Keep a backup angle so you’re not exposed if someone pushes straight through.
  2. If you want better clarity yourself, prioritize visibility-friendly graphics settings and contrast over trying to “see through” the gas.

TL;DR: They usually aren’t literally seeing through it; they’re either protected, pushing through the gas, or benefiting from the fact that gas in ABI weakens visibility but doesn’t fully erase it.
