Among the contents to be released first, in Patch Build, functions such as checking the status of the player's character and purchasing items or upgrading skills will be given, and an inventory system to manage acquired items can be used.
Deathmatch is basically an online PvP content mode where players from both camps who selected matching can show off their strength, and various matching modes will be added sequentially in the future. Battle field is a space where players defeat various monsters and acquire goods or items as PvE content.

The battle of "The Patcher" emphasizes strategy and judgment, and it is especially effective to fight while replacing three types of weapons--swords, guns, and bows--depending on the situation. If the players know where players from other camps are moving, the player can use sniper with a bow from a distance, or switch the weapon to a sword if the player finds an opponent with a bow for close combat to have a higher chance of winning the battle.

In addition to that, there are skills that help in combat and hunting, and players can fight by equipping one of the nine skills. In this open beta test, two types of skills will be revealed. If the skills are used well, the players will solve battles more easily.
