But the experience wouldn't be complete without the strategy and survival items: the damage trap, the spiker and the boogie-woogie bomb make a stunning return, as do the boisterous rides in a supermarket cart or off-road buggy. With such dynamic vehicles, we can only look forward to frantic racing and spectacular stunts.

November 9 will bring a dark and mysterious wind with the patching of Update 27.00 for Season 6, unveiling Loot Lake in a darker atmosphere. This twist will see the arrival of new weapons such as the double shotgun and six-shot revolver, as well as defensive tools such as the congealer and pocket fortress, not forgetting the deployable turret. For those preferring a more dramatic entry, the jet-powered quad and aeroplane promise not to disappoint.
