If player have a Nvidia graphics card, then they can also enable Nvidia's Deep learning super sampling (DLSS).

Players can pickup / buy items within the game world, where items are stored in the inventory. There are 3 types of items, which are consumable, mission item and trash. Each items can be useable/droppable/sellable/stackable depending of the type of object.
Useable: These Items can be used and give effects (e.g., use health kit to restore player's health)
Droppable: These items can be dropped to the ground to clean up the inventory
Sellable: These items can be dropped to the selling zone and sell for a discounted price of the original value
Stackable: These items can be stacked together until it reached it's maximum stackable size
Players can view the whole map and create way point to get a optimal walking path. A mini-map is also shown at the top left corner, and the path will update as the player walks. The path is caculated using the A* path finding algorithm.
During the game, player needs to complete quests in order to progress.
- The quests are mainly divided into main and side quests, and each quest have its own tasks also
