Community Insight:

This game is OuTsTaNdInG It is so underrated this game should be 4.6 or 4.7!we love the skins and how much fun it is to do duos and squads!we love the maps our favorite skins are probably The Video Gamer and And ummmmmmmm we kinda forgot But we like mostly all of them! The weapons-oh dont even get us started SO DETAILED!we love the scopes,the keychains,the colors,the guns themselves! EVRYTHING!we have nothing to suggest rn! We hope you guys and gals have a good day/morning/night! ByeeeEeEe (it wouldnt let us put five stars or any stars).


This is amazing game if it was for ps4 it would be better we been play this game for 5 years and got wayyyy good at it but we say this game should be for ps4 and ps5 that can cross play wit mobile people it would bring the game back how it used to be KNIVES OUT please read this text and people please like it so they can see it.


Needs more development on the control system but in total it is a good game to play.


We think this is an underrated game and its great. But can we make it so that we can switch the language to English in order to understand the characters in game call outs?? Also, we feel like theres no real way to aim down sight while using a weapon. Theres so much fire spread. Maybe Im just new and havent discovered it yet, but its annoying. The BIGGEST one for us is the graphics. Theyre really really bad. Its a huge map (which we love) and making higher quality graphics may be harder for developers + devices but respectfully, we dont care!! Id be willing to spend money on this game if the graphics improved. Apex mobile graphics? Chefs kiss. If you guys can fix these things Ill love you forever.


Please let ROS back we miss it so much.


It feels similar to pub g but adds a little bit of a different feel, we enjoy this game and notice real players more frequently than bots.


Good game but needs a few problems fixed.


Bring rules of survival back!!!!!! Please.


Rules of survival was better than any mobile game and it had more ppl than this game.


Hey, it would be rad if this game transferred over any of the goodies we earned and paid for from Rules of Survival, the basically sister game from this same company. Really, really rad.


Our japanese buddy Eiji suggested this game. Our first game was 14 kills and we won! Lots of fun if you have experience with battle Royale games.


We played this game Nov 23,2017 when beta testing open. We had amazing times in knives out. Its 2023 to this day Im still playing. We had troubles in the past of lagging, but now these days we dont. Knives out really brought. Good people in the game we wish they brought back attack on titans fairytale, and more BACK to N/A . When the first season came out May 3,2018 we were so happy we wish old people came back to the game and relive knives out again 2nd acct was Samgladiator1.


Ive been hooked on this game since about 5 yrs ago. This is our stress reliever. You play with people from different parts of the world. Overall we give it a 9 out of 10. We recommend it. Try it out it might take a few times to get into it. But its fun game to play.


Never played the mobile version but love the ps version tho we wish it was on english playstation store instead of only Japanese store but game is fun.


Always sneaking around for a great position to take out your enemies while also watching out to not get sneaked on yourself. You also have to keep moving, you could be on someones scope. When you start off the game you will be in bot lobbies but you will soon play more actual players. If your having a hard time in the game you should know that a good position is key. Game takes less space then PUBG, fun, and is easier to run on your mobile device.


First time we want to see this improve.


The events and crates and coupon shop arent the same on the different servers. Also customer service isnt that great. We also dont like that when we spend money they dont always take it right away they wait a few days sometimes a week or two. The North American server doesnt have a lot of people play the peak season matches we think the developers could do something to encourage more play in those matches also the workshop modes are pretty dead on that server which makes the achievements either non completable or boring because your the only one in match and win automatically. They could with a little effort make those modes more attractive to their clients. The other thing we would add is that the crates are sometimes overpriced big time for what you get they up with every spin which is lame and the prizes okay but not worth what they are asking would be better to just have a set price for the whole package. They could also add a translator to the game for better communication between players and understanding mail they sometimes send which is in Japanese even if you select another language.


We started playing this game because one of net eases games Creative destruction shutdown. We love this game a lot! One problem though is that we think the swimming movement speed needs to be increased. We also feel that the map is to hard to navigate and to large. Sometimes our matches can last up to 20 minutes until we get to last three standing. Instead of adding new skins please update the graphics and possibly add sliding to sort out the map navigation and movement problem.


We bet $1,000 dollars if you the Developers can transfer our Android account into our IOS, because we dont want to start back from Level 1 after we get new IPhone, we used to play on Android and our level was like 54 and its took us like 4 year to get that level 54 and Im not going to spend another 4 year to get back level 54.. We love this game very much but Im not going to return unless they let us transfer our Android account to IOS.


Basically you will waste your time playing this game because the graphics are terrible and that the game is horrible by its self if we made this game we would tare it down honestly.


The bots are better the game looks better it has better items so ummmm.


This game needs so much work. Its basically still in beta.


The game is really good on terms of maps and weapons &overall great combat and battle royale would love if there was more English has well.


Super fun and fast paced battle royale game. Only downside is lack of translation of audio and initial map from Chinese to English.


We love this game so much but it would be so much better if had controller support.


First game we had 7 kills but the stupid pumpkin teleported us 2000 meters away from the safe zone and we were so close to making it out but then the gas damage randomly multiplied and we died. Very frustrating.


Great game, needs a translator and put some weather in it. Night games , fog, some variety , we played ROS a lot, but this is better, thanks.


So much for re installing this game again HORRIBLE WHAT A WASTE OF MY TIME NOW we CANT GET INTO MY ACCOUNT IN GLOBAL it DONT even let us put 0 stars so yea.


We love the game but there are things that bother us such as the graphics on peninsula too dark nobody can see anything! And Its very strange how we cant upload pics when theyre not inappropriate at all but yall have bots (ALOT) named n!gger and Im black and yall always disapprove of our pics idk Its not feeling very welcomey.


We tried to log in to our account it didnt let us log in on IOS because we made the acc way back on a android how do we log in on IOS.


This game is so good we can play 24/7.


An extremely good free 2 play BR. We would definitely recommend, the only downside is the location names and voice lines are in Chinese (at least for us, and no, the gui is English) which are just tiny details. Great teamwork, fun mechanics, maps, everything! Stop doubting and download. Yep, still waiting for u to click get. Still waiting. Just click it! We dont wanna sit here all day. Its free, and the file aint that big, get it! Im impatient already just click it please. Get it now or shrek will be under your bed Or worse donkey! Ok get it. Fine! EVERYBODY GANGSTA TILL THEY GET THE GAME.


Please available it in India. If you available this game in India you get hug profit. Please less its downloading size in iPhone. Please please.


Get rid of the costumes. Of any, add camouflage fatigues. Get rid of the customized weapons. The look stupid.


The game is eh its not that good thats why its not growing really well but its a alright game but we just started yesterday and there putting us with experienced players and not with players that just started like us but all in all the game is trash we do not recommend it but Ill still play it but we recommend not playing it match making is garbage, guns trash but we think its still a pretty good game but its just the match making is the problem Just like every battle royale game the match making is terrible. But the game is still trash but its also good so we would say its mid its a mid game. Its not that good of a game.


The graphics are terrible and look like a shrek ps2 game. The graphics are worse than sneak king, the Burger King game. The gunplay is terrible and worse than rules of survival. (Another trash mobile game) we would rather play pubg on an iPhone 9 and that doesnt exist. It feels like playing cyberpunk on current gen. Every player is so trash it feels like your playing bots. You have a better chance at getting slapped by Dwayne Johnson while in Australia than getting killed. The entire game is HOT GARBAGE. The only good thing about the game is that the customization is so terrible its funny. Its the perfect game to play if you want to ruin your day.


In our first game he got 12 kills and its a very good game the graphics can you some work but you know games the game is still a 10 out of 10.


The best game in the world dont believe try it you'll see.


Definitely better than PUBG hands down.


We love this game so much, we used to have this game a long time ago and took a break and just got it again its still the best game Ive ever played.


We remember back before fortnite we used to play this game so much and it brought us so much fun. We made a lot of friends and had amazing times. We were great at the game and we thank you for the good times you brought us from a br experience.


Honestly this game is really nice it has all the basic and good qualities and standards a regular battle royal game would have.our only thing is ourselves and Im sure other people would like is more maps in the game like mini beta maps which would make the game a whole lot better.Also, instead of the zone being a red line could yall make it like a full color like how pubg is.Look it up pubg zone then you will know what we are talking about.In the end, its really great and hope to see it update and get better in the future.Thank you for your time-Hayatt Abuhmoud.


How do we get the skins for jujutsu kaisen event.


This game is better then fortnight in almost every way the mp5 is our favorite gun we won a hole round with it this game is just better.


One of our top 5 games ever ! Great game that keeps ya coming back!! We have not spent any money on this game and been playing for years ! We do have an audio problem !! Driving us crazy , we have sound when we start off , but soon as we run toward we lose all audio !! We hurry up and kill game and reload asap and usually its back to somewhat normal ( enough to actually hear game if we mute all tvs or radio in our common area ) very , very frustrating!!! Im surprised it hasnt been fixed yet because their usually on top of all bugs and fixes right away !! Im hoping maybe this will shine some light on problem !!! Happy new year , and happy hunting. AIRBORNE all the way.


Impossvel jogar no servidor JP para ns brasileiros, mesmo usando UU GAME BOOSTER ou outra VPN no abaixa muito o MS do jogo. Aqui no nosso servidor o jogo falido, o nico que h jogadores no JP, mas impossvel jogar por causa do delay, e ainda por cima o jogo fica fechando toda hora. Vocs no fazem nada para melhorar, sempre pioram.


Ive been playing this game (on and off bc of storage space on our phone) since 2017 and Ive loved every minute of it.


Overall the game is really great and definitely underrated but we think you should improve the games mechanics like movement and realism.


Its so much fun u Should downloaded it.


Cyber hunter is one of the best battle royal you guys have and people are leaving because of hackers all of that because of them!!!! Fix the gameeeee!!! Create new content plsssssss.
