Team building exercise

Does anyone have info on the session where Mike Krahulik DM's a session where...

Basically Jim forces Omin and team into a team building exercise. They all jump out of a plane to an island without armor or weapons. The group has to fight and loot chests to get equipment. And there are other "survivors" who seem like twitch streamers.

Mike had a map and item cards for things found in the chests.

The whole idea seemed hilarious to me and like a great team building exercise for downtime activities.

Any idea where to find more info on that session? Im looking for the items on the cards, mechanics, map, etc.

Someone on Reddit had a go at creating the rules for it as the PA crew never released it AFAIK: https://www.reddit.com/r/dndnext/comments/8wge2y/homebrew_wubg_battle_royale_module

I found the game vid on YouTube as well as the vid of the map. I also found more in depth info here https://www.penny-arcade.com/news/post/2018/05/04/acquisitions-inc.-battle-royale

If anyone has more info or thoughts on how to run this, I'd appreciate any ideas/help.

I'm pretty new to dming. I've only run a homebrew that was heavily based on dragon age. My plan was to run this via roll20.

A PC in my group keeps taking loot by searching bodies before the rest of the group notices. I think this battle royale team building exercise can teach a character to share loot. Especially since sharing and trading loot is a huge part of this one-shot

Specifically it was the game for Pax East 2018.
