The First Soldier offers a few things that are departures from the traditional style of the Battle Royale. For instance, besides the players you will be fighting, there are also NPC monsters that drop loot. Another key difference is that you'll select a style when you start a match. These are similar to the Final Fantasy universe jobs and provide different bonuses for unique playstyles.
For example:
- The Warrior style increases the distance that you can target with melee attacks.
- The Ninja style gives you a double jump.
- The Sorcerer style gives a boost to magic damage when upgrading your melee weapon.
