XERA: Survival recently got a new update that makes some changes to the loot system, map, and character spawning.
The spawning system received small changes, including new players spawning at random places, instead of at safe areas. When players spawn, they no longer appear where they logged out before updates. This gives a more challenging experience to stay alive in this survival game. Moreover, developers added more military roadblocks across the map, which can make it difficult for players.
