Daybreak Games heeft een grote update voor H1Z1: Battle Royale uitgebracht en die dient voor de start van het vijfde seizoen. Eén van de belangrijkste nieuwe features, is de toevoeging van de map Outland. Deze map is kleiner dan de originele map met een oppervlakte van 16 vierkante kilometer, maar alsnog zal het genoeg speelruimte bieden.

Verder voegt deze update nog vier nieuwe voertuigen toe, wat nieuwe outfits, twee nieuwe wapens en er worden verschillende bugs en issues aangepakt. Hieronder tref je de changelog met alle belangrijke correcties en verder hebben we nog een trailer die je de nieuwe content toont.
