Play surviv.io Online: Where to Play + Quick Info
Quick facts
Common issues
- mouse cursor leaves game window (dual monitors) -> play in fullscreen mode (F11) to lock the cursor to the game area
- rubber-banding or teleporting -> high ping/network desync; ensure you select the server region closest to your physical location
- stuck on 'finding match' -> your school/work network might be blocking WebSocket connections; try disabling VPNs or ad-blockers
- can't pick up items -> ensure you are looking directly at the item and pressing 'F', and check if your backpack is full
- severe lag during gunfights -> close heavy background tabs and ensure 'Hardware Acceleration' is enabled in your browser settings

How do I heal or restore adrenaline?
Click on bandages, medkits, sodas, or pills in your inventory UI at the bottom of the screen, or use the default hotkeys (7, 8, 9, 0).
How do I zoom out to see further away?
You need to find scopes as ground loot (2x, 4x, 8x, or 15x). Once picked up, they automatically equip and expand your field of vision.
How do I play with friends?
Click 'Create Team' on the main menu to generate a party link. Send this link to your friends so they can join your lobby for Duos or Squads.
What is the red zone?
It is a Battle Royale mechanic. A deadly red gas slowly shrinks the map over time. You must stay inside the safe zone (the white circle on your map) to survive.
How do I run faster?
Press 'E' to stow your weapons. You run significantly faster with empty hands than you do while holding a gun.
