- Between rounds you can edit your name and change skins without going back to the lobby.
Forgiving first 45 seconds
November 2026
- You now spawn far from rivals big enough to eat you, inside the safe zone.
- A 3-second spawn shield protects you after every spawn (you can still eat).
- For the first 45 seconds of a round, rivals mostly ignore players under mass 40.
- Reset progress now clears XP, levels and unlocks too.

Storm rounds
November 2026
- Every round is now a 3-minute Storm battle royale.
- The safe ring shrinks every 30 seconds, with a dashed preview and a warning pulse.

- New Storm Survivor win screen and placement on death screens.
Free reward boosts

- Double mass gain for ten minutes from the lobby.
