Team Deathmatch

The main game mode where players score by killing enemy soldiers. The first team to reach 7500 points wins, with each kill worth 100 points/XP.

Domination

Players capture and hold three designated positions on the map. The team with more captured positions scores more points. The first team to reach a target score wins.

Kill Confirmed

Similar to Team Deathmatch, but kills only count when the dropped dog tag is collected. Collecting enemy (red) dog tags earns a point, while collecting friendly (blue) dog tags negates a point for the enemy. The first to 65 points wins.

Uplink

A new mode where players carry a Satellite Drone and score by throwing it into the enemy's goal (1 point) or jumping into the goal with it (2 points). The team with the higher score at the end wins.

Momentum

A new mode featuring five flags that appear sequentially on the map. Teams must capture all flags to score a point. The team with the most points at the end of the timer wins.

Hardpoint

A King-of-the-hill style mode where players score points by occupying small, temporary zones. The more players in a zone, the more points scored.

Search and Destroy

An attack/defend mode where the attacking team plants a bomb and the defending team defuses it. Players do not respawn after being killed, making each round a single life.

Search and Rescue

Combines elements of Search and Destroy and Kill Confirmed. Killed players drop dog tags. If an ally picks up the tag, the player respawns.

Capture the Flag

Players capture the enemy's flag and return it to their own territory to score. The team with the most captured flags wins.

Free-for-all

A mode where each player is on their own. The first player to reach 30 points wins.
