What are reboot cards and how long do they last?

If you are long Fourteen days Players, chances are you already know what a reboot map is. But for everyone else, a quick refresher is worth it. Reboot Cards were first introduced in Fourteen days back in season 8, next to the reboot van. But if you’ve never played Duos, Trios, or Squads, chances are you’ve never encountered these tokens that drop when a teammate dies.

The Reboot Card is actually a very important part of the gameplay loop in team-based mode Fourteen days Games, and understanding exactly what they do and how long they last once dropped is crucial if you want to get your teammates back in the game.

What is a Fourteen days Reboot Card and how long does it last?

First, let’s discuss how to get reboot cards. These tokens drop when a teammate is defeated by an enemy. This means that any firefight that ends with your teammates being eliminated will have a reboot card appear next to their body. Only other teammates can pick up a reboot card, and they float right where the teammate died. So if your teammate died while jumping off something, the restart card will be floating in the air.

Once a Reboot Card drops, you only have 90 seconds to pick it up. If you don’t make it to the map within 90 seconds, it will disappear entirely, eliminating your teammate from the game for good. However, after you’ve picked it up, all you have to do is go to a Reboot Van. These items are scattered throughout the island Fourteen daysand the fallen teammates can even ping one nearby.

After you put a reboot card in a reboot van, the fallen teammate will respawn. Unfortunately, they don’t keep any of the gear they had before. Instead, they spawn back with 100 health, a common pistol, and 100 wood. Because of this, we highly recommend bringing some extra weapons and materials to get them back in action.

Additionally, if you’ve managed to snag multiple Reboot Cards, you can use them all at the same time. And since enemies can’t even see your teammates’ restart cards, you never have to worry about them snagging them instead.

Reboot cards are sometimes disabled – like during the Fortnitemares: Midas’ Revenge event. If they are disabled you will not be able to pick them up. They also don’t appear in singles matches or matches where you don’t have teammates. That’s pretty much all you need to know. Now get out there and collect some cards!

Fourteen days is now free to play on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Switch, PC, iOS and Android.
