Overview
- Arena Royale features six squads of four with respawns allowed until the final circle and a pre-match vote that selects the biome for each round.
- Buy Stations are removed, chests open automatically, and rotating Arena Events compress fights to deliver “less looting, more shooting.”
- Four Royale locales include returning Drought, Glacier, and Fracture plus a new urban map, Outskirts.
- Standard arena play adds two maps: Tri-Hard built around launch portals and jump pads, and Runway set in a Shinjuku-inspired neon cityscape.
- The update launches simultaneously on Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox One/Series X|S, and PlayStation 4/5, with proximity chat for Royale, a new Isotromic mastery camo, stability and balance fixes, and the Teabag Takeover limited event starting January 23.
