Good Landing Spot = Survival

Good Landing Spot Ensures Survival

Where you land is important because this determines whether or not you will be able to survive the first few minutes of the game.

Avoid Encounters

Most eliminations in the early game happen when players land close to each other. Landing in a sparsely populated area will ensure that you can avoid other players before you've managed to grab a weapon or two.

Land Fast & Equip Yourself Immediately

A good landing spot should have items that you can use to defend yourself. Always aim to land fast and close to a weapon or chest so you're not left to fight with your pickaxe during the first minute of the match.

Landing Recommendations per Mode
