Combat Modes

Competitive multiplayer modes for How to Fish: fight your friends on the game's islands with a native-looking menu, lobby, HUD and scoreboard.

|---|---|---|

| 1v1 Duel | 2 | First to win 5 rounds. Random weapon kit, attachments and island every round. |

| Free-for-all | 2–8 | First to 20 kills, or the best score after 10 minutes. Shared kit that changes every 2 minutes. |
