Weekend Rewards and Matchmaking
The September 9 announcement introduced weekend login rewards and changed how matches fill. The September 23 update replaced reward mail with the in-game Weekend Surprise event: one Pro Combat Bag and two Elite Combat Bags, claimable weekly until Season 1 ends.
Original weekend rewards
Section titled “Original weekend rewards”The following mail schedule applied before the September 23 update.
| Mail sent | Reward |
|---|---|
| Friday, 00:00 server time | 1 Pro Combat Bag |
| Saturday, 00:00 server time | 1 Pro Combat Bag |
| Sunday, 00:00 server time | 1 Elite Combat Bag |
The original schedule required logging in within 24 hours of each delivery. Claiming all three days awarded two Pro Combat Bags and one Elite Combat Bag per weekend.
The announced mail schedule used UTC+0 for International, UTC+10 for Oceania and UTC-8 for North America.
Dynamic match sizes
Section titled “Dynamic match sizes”All modes now use dynamic player caps. A match can begin with fewer players when necessary to test lower-density matches. The announcement does not set one new fixed cap for every match.
See maps for extraction areas and September 3 patch notes for the preceding class and ammunition changes.
