Rise Up: Free-to-Play ‘POPULATION: ONE’ Announces Phoenix Royale, Preview Weekend Kicks Off May 31

Get ready for POPULATION: ONE’s largest battle royale update, featuring automatic redeploys to cheat defeat, more ways to customize your playstyle with buy station upgrades, and more opportunity for action—all on a brand-new map.

On June 6, POP1 will launch Phoenix Royale, which lets fallen players rise up and respawn to continue the action-packed fun. Mark your calendars for the Phoenix Preview Weekend, running from 11:00 am PT on May 31 through 10:59 am PT on June 3.

To celebrate the launch of Phoenix Royale, the dev team at BigBox VR has some limited-time rewards for the community. Play five Phoenix Royale matches during Phoenix Preview Weekend to earn the “Phoenix Rising” title—an exclusive accolade that will never again be obtainable in-game as a paid or earned reward.

And the celebration continues at launch on June 6 with exclusive, free character skin rewards. Play two Phoenix Royale matches during the first two weeks post-launch to earn the “Delta” character skin. And play 15 Phoenix Royale matches in total to earn the “Jet” character skin.

Charge those headsets and assemble your squad: Phoenix Royale rises soon.
