This guide will explain everything related to this event, which is called Return to Verdansk.
What Is The Return To Verdansk Event?
The Return to Verdansk is a time-limited eventto celebrate the return of Verdansk and offer you some free rewards from the OG days.
How the event works is thatthe map is separated into sections, and in each section,you may find blue safes to open, which will progress you through the event.
Thankfully, this event is not tied solely to Battle Royale mode only. If you prefer not to get interfered with by other players, especially veterans, you’re able to progress through it inBattle Royale Casual or even in Plunder, which can make things easier for casual players.
