How a match works
Summary
Each match starts with 100 players jumping from a flying vehicle. You pick your landing spot, then race to collect weapons, health kits, and shields before running into other players. The safe zone shrinks over time, which pushes everyone closer together until only one player remains. Upgrading your guns and gear gives you an edge, and you can track your progress on the leaderboard.
- Players per match 100
- Goal be the last player alive
- Safe zone shrinks gradually as the match goes on
- Items to collect weapons, health kits, and shields
- Progression guns and gear can be upgraded
- Leaderboard tracks wins and overall score
Landing and looting at the start
StepThe first seconds after you land decide a lot. Less popular corners of the map mean fewer enemies right away, giving you time to search buildings without someone shooting at you immediately. Prioritize weapons and recovery items, and once you have a basic loadout, figure out where the safe zone is before you start moving around.
- Pick a landing spot areas with less traffic give you time to loot without a fight
- Enter the nearest building search for weapons and healing items
- Listen to the game footsteps and gunfire tell you when an enemy is close before you see them
Building a mid-game loadout
TipsAs you move through the middle of the match, you want three to four weapons covering short, medium, and long range. A shotgun handles close quarters, an assault rifle covers mid-range, and a sniper rifle lets you engage from a distance.
- Carry a short-range weapon like a shotgun for tight spaces
- Keep a mid-range rifle for open fights
- Add a sniper rifle if you find one — long sightlines reward it
Late-game positioning and fights
CheckThe safe zone keeps closing in, and by the late game you will bump into other players constantly. Claiming the high ground — upper floors of buildings, positions near windows — lets you fire down on enemies who have to cross open ground to reach you. If two other players are already fighting each other, wait and let the winner take damage before you engage. Switch between your weapons based on how far the enemy is.
- Take the high ground upper floors and windows give you angles that are hard to counter
- Let other players fight first the survivor will be hurt
- Switch weapons by range use the right one for the distance

Common questions
FAQDo I need to buy a gamepass to win?
Gamepasses speed up gear and gun upgrades.
How do I handle fights against multiple enemies at once?
Get into cover, let them focus on each other if possible, and engage the weakened survivor rather than both of them at full health.
