Reader's Guide
Players parachute from a plane onto Sanhok, choosing the best time to eject. They start with no gear and must search buildings, ghost towns, and other sites for weapons, vehicles, armor, and equipment. Items are procedurally distributed, with high-risk zones typically having better equipment. Killed players can be looted. The playable area shrinks every few minutes, and random regions may be bombed. A plane occasionally drops loot packages with rare items. On average, a full round takes no more than 30 minutes. The vehicle 'Coupe RB' is not available on Sanhok; it is exclusive to Miramar. The vehicle 'Mirado' is not available on Sanhok; it is exclusive to Miramar.
