In-game

In the deep desert, players will be released into the full extent of the game, open PvP will be enabled, even allowing players to shoot their teammates.[1]

Also in the deep desert, the shifting sands mechanic is present[2]: every week a massive Coriolis storm will sweep through the area, demolishing anything in its path[3]

Benefits/Rewards

Of course, the player will be well rewarded in response to all the risks the Deep Desert gives the player:

  • Very valuable items
  • Spice Blows [4] and harvesting opportunities for the "most valuable" resource
  • Special schematics for the player to unlock [5] such as exclusive guns and such

Risks

Due to the nature of it, the Deep Desert is a very dangerous place. Some dangers the players will fill are:

  • Ringmouth sandworms, capable of consuming vehicles whole. [6][7]
  • PvP, including Friendly fire[1]
  • Suspected unsuitability of shields due to worms and vast landscape of open sand[8]
  • Sandstorms
  • Intense sunlight leading to dehydration[9]
