- Repair Kits: These will be scattered across the map, allowing players to repair their armour, helmet, or even vehicle if needed. A Mechanic’s Toolbox can also be used to repair vehicles you are inside.
- Care Packages: Players can also expect to run into Multidrop Care Packages. These will contain high-tier weapons, armour, consumables, and more.
Sanhok World Updates
- Ascenders: Players will be able to use Ascenders in cave and rock mountains. These will be provided as starting items for players, allowing for more methods of traversal.
- Bridges: More bridges have been added to make traversal even easier.
- Deeper Water: The water area around the Ruins has been made deeper for players to traverse over.
- Sand Terrain: Players can expect new sand terrain in new areas for easier travel.
The Arena
