You can download the game via the official Roblox app. If you have trouble installing the game, check out the Roblox troubleshooting guide. Once you install the game, you can jump straight into multiplayer matches. Here is a list of all the modes: 

  • Team Deathmatch
  • Capture The Flag
  • Free for All (Practice) 
  • Gun Game 
  • 1v1 Duel
  • 2v2 Duel

The best place to try out new weapons is Free For All. You have access to every weapon in the game and face off against real players. Team Deathmatch and Capture The Flag are objective-based game modes. The other modes are a test of your movement and aiming mechanics. 

As a new player, you should try all the new weapons and learn how to move around the map. The game features jumping, sliding, and various additional abilities that enhance movement and provide other utilities. Practice with different weapons to get used to the recoil and aim at your targets better. 1v1 Duels can help you take on solo engagements and get used to dueling other players.
