H1Z1 Is The Battle Royale We’ve Been Waiting For PS4

in #gaming6 years ago

If you’ve noticed, the battle royale genre has taken the world by storm, which means that there are a lot of similar-looking games with the same concept: be the last to survive. One of the battle royale original games, H1Z1, has jumped back into the bandwagon and is off to a fiery start.

H1Z1 came out earlier last week in beta as a free PS4 download and has garnered a massive crowd of supporters. Daybreak Games announced that 24 hours after its PS4 launch, H1Z1 was downloaded by more than 1.5 million supporters.

So what is the game’s appeal? Let’s find out:

What’s H1Z1 About?

H1Z1 is a battle royale game where 150 players compete to be the last survivor. You start by parachuting from a random location above the map. You’ll have to grab weapons, armour, ammo and necessary objects the moment you land in order to fight your way to survival. You can find vehicles throughout the map to chase down opponents or make a quick getaway.

As the game progresses, a toxic gas cloud compresses the map, dealing damage to anyone who touches. You’ll know when it is time to start running into the safe zone when you hear the siren sounding off.

This is a common strategy in battle royales to make the playable portion of the map smaller. You’ll eventually be forced to face the other players in close quarters.

How Is It?

Upon first impressions, the game combines a “Silent Hill” and “Counter-Strike” vibe due to the siren sounding off when the safe zone is shrinking. The world that you are in resembles more of PlayerUnknown’s BattleGrounds (PUBG) rather than Fortnite, with realistic characters and environment.

It’s a great substitute for PUBG-lovers who want to play PUBG on PS4. Furthermore, the game is extremely fast-paced and crazily intense!

Since H1Z1 is still in beta, expect limited features and the occasional bug here and there.
