* Scores apply to all team members.

Clash

6v6. Classic team deathmatch.

Earn points for kills and aiding teammates.

Control

6v6. Control zones for additional point bonuses for your team.

Capture and hold zones, and then rack up kills against the enemy team while your point bonuses are active.

Capturing zones awards points and super energy.

Combined Arms

6v6. Control or Clash played only on large maps with vehicles present.

Identical to Control or Clash, but because you are assured of fighting vehicles, bring a loadout suitable for destroying them, or seek to avoid them entirely.

Rumble

6 player free for all.

The highest score wins. Unlike team play modes, you can have a lower k/d ratio and still come out on top in Rumble. Aggression is encouraged!

Skirmish

3v3. Team revives enabled.

This is a small-scale tactical team deathmatch.

Revive your teammates to score points and maintain your team cohesion.

Deaths have a longer respawn time than in other modes.

Salvage

3v3. Secure objectives, team revives enabled.

A mix of Skirmish’s tight team deathmatch tactics and Control’s objective focus, Salvage demands that you locate and secure artifacts to score points.

Capture the artifact by deploying your Ghost near it, and stop the enemy team from capturing an artifact by deactivating their Ghost.
