New to RIVALS: start in 1v1 or duels — small modes teach the movement-shoot rhythm faster than chaotic big lobbies.

How it plays

The basics.

  1. 1
    Pick a mode

    Ranked-feel duel formats — 1v1 up to 5v5, plus casual queues. Rounds are short.

  2. 2
    Learn the movement

    Sliding, jumping and momentum matter as much as aim — standing still is a death sentence.

  3. 3
    Master a weapon or two

    Each gun has a distinct role; the meta favors whoever controls mid-range.

  4. 4
    Play the objective

    Modes reward eliminations and round control, not just K/D.

The Hollow collab

Halloween crossover.

RIVALS joined Roblox's The Hollow Halloween event with a free skin case for participating — the collab window ran through early November. Check the in-game event tab for what's still live.
