There are two different game modes, PvP and PvE. The one everyone is talking about is the PvP battle royale style looter shooter with building mechanics.
It's a free to play game that you essentially harvest materials to build structures (either for defense or attack), while you and 99 other people try to outlast each other.
The big kicker is that the map everyone lands on continues to shrink which eliminates the camper problem so many games have, and it forces navigating long stretches of the map forcing inevitable conflict. There is also no carry over, so once your dead, you can just boot back up and start a new game all over. That aspect makes it addicting as hell...
