The game does a little different than most other battle royale game such as Fortnite and Pubg. The winter landscape makes the game look beautiful and also there is a survival part to it too. You can get Hypothermia from the Dynamic weather system. Avalanches can occur on any different part of the map which can threaten your life. The game can be played in both first and third perspective. There is a system where any gear you pick will be automatically equipped to the relevant weapons. The game offers many Built in cover mechanics and also some fun options such as- snowboarding, Gliding and mountain climbing. But most of all the rescue flight can save up to four people so 4 people can be the winner.
