Runic Power Gameplay (January 12 to March 7)

Runes from another world have brought three special powers with them. Choose the power that suits you, collect Rune fragments, and use them to aid you in your fight to become the final winner on the battlefield. Choose Erangel in map selection to experience this exclusive gameplay mode.

  • Gameplay

 

  • Players will choose their Rune energy type on Spawn Island. You will need to choose to bring either the Flame Rune, Arctic Rune, or Wind Rune into the current match.

  • Rune Abilities
    • Flame Rune:
      • Summon skill - Summons a wheel of flame that rolls forward slowly, dealing burn damage to enemy players it touches.
      • Boost skill - Adds a burning effect to your Ammo for a short time.
