Strategy Guide
- Predator's Cloaking Device can be used to effectively reposition yourself in the final set of storm circles. If the enemy players cannot see where you are positioning, you may be able to get the jump on them.
- Predator's Cloaking Device cancels when doing anything but holding the item. As such you should be weary on the difficulty that might arise when attempting to attack other players.
- The device does not make you completely invisible, and as such you can be identified when using it.
- You can easily defeat a player that has this by using visualized sound effects.
- You should switch to a weapon when you are ready to attack, since if you turn the cloak off by pressing the button, you will stand still for a few seconds, making you exposed.
History
Chapter 2: Season 5

Trivia
- The item is unique in that it is classed as a 'Power'. However, Superpowers are a very similar class of item, and as such are often included as one in the same.
- The device is almost identical to the one in the Predator movies, and even the appearance of a cloaked player is the same.
- When dropped as floor loot, the item shows the cloaking device with a hand attached to it.
