Check Out This Survival Guide & Tips

Focus Fire On Single Enemies

Focusing your team's fire on a single target will increase the chances of a bullet hitting that target! It is recommended that teams fire at a single target to down those targets faster!

Stay Together With Your Team

Staying close to your team eliminates any danger of you being singled-out by enemy players! By staying close, it also helps you provide back up to your teammates who need help!

Revive Your Allies

A downed ally can drag your team down since the squad has one less member to contribute! Remember that getting the Victory Royale tastes so much sweeter with all your teammates alive to share it with!

Keep Yourself Safe

Just like an ally, the team would suffer if you are not there to help in your own way! Remember to keep yourself so you can help out your team!
