But ... what is a Battle Royale?

Battle Royale is a subgenre within the survival titles that is inspired by the Japanese film and literary work of the same name.

In these games we will find ourselves in an immense area (usually an island) that we will have to explore in order to obtain weapons, armor and other equipment that will allow us to face the rest of the players who will try to end our lives.

The final goal is very clear, to get rid of all the rivals that cross our path and be the only survivor of the island, the "king of the hill" who has been the only one capable of surviving all the dangers that have been crossed his path.

Basic mechanics

The first incursions in H1Z1: King of the Kill can be somewhat chaotic and, therefore, in Vandal, we will summarize the basic mechanics of a normal game in this game of survival.

At the start of the game a helicopter will throw us in a random area of the map and we will meet our character in a parachute, being able to decide which place in the area we want to fall to get the most out of our delicate situation.

Once on the ground our first task will be to find a weapon as quickly as possible and eliminate some enemy nearby (if someone has made us company in the fall) as well as collecting components or other objects that are helpful.

After equipping ourselves minimally we should consult the map, get oriented and look for the safe area that will be inside a huge green circle that will be highlighted on the map. After a while, all players outside that circle will receive damage from a dangerous toxic gas that can kill their life.

This safe area will become smaller as the minutes of the game pass so our goal will be to always reach the protected area while trying to pass unnoticed by other players or eliminate them and seek combat depending on the pace of game.

The smaller the safe areas are, of course, the easier it is to meet a rival until, in the final stages in which the circle is really small, combat is inevitable and we will depend as much on our ability as on our team. get out and win the game if we become the only survivor.
