First things to do when you join
StepWhen you load into Southside City for the first time, a couple of quick actions will set you up much better than jumping straight into a fight. The city is open-world, so you have freedom to move around and get your bearings at your own pace.
- Redeem your codes to collect your starting cash and weapon rewards.
- Scout gear locations note where equipment and items are sitting in the city so you can grab them quickly later.
- Start training begin working on your character's abilities right away, since stronger stats make every fight easier.
Winning PvP fights and climbing the leaderboard
TipsThe leaderboard reflects your PvP results and how much you have trained. The more challenges you take on, the faster you improve and rise in the rankings.
- Use the city's terrain to your advantage before a fight starts.
- Complete challenges regularly, since clearing them pushes your leaderboard rank up.
- Play with friends when you can — co-op makes earning experience more efficient and gives you backup in fights.
Vehicles and how to use them well
TipsSouthside City has multiple vehicles you can customize and upgrade. Speed, durability, and how a vehicle handles are all things you can change.
- Test several vehicles before committing your cash to upgrading one.
- Use vehicles to escape dangerous situations, not just to travel faster.
- Customising the look of your vehicle is an option alongside the performance upgrades.
Redeem codes
WarnThe game distributes codes that give you cash and weapon rewards. As of October 22, 2026, there are two working codes tracked for this game. New codes are released periodically.
