Domination (DOM)
Two to three teams battle for dominance by capturing and holding multiple zones scattered across the field. The objective is simple: control more zones than your opponents to earn points every second.
Teams must balance offense and defense. Push into enemy-held areas to steal control while protecting your own zones from being overrun. Coordination, timing, and smart positioning are key to maintaining dominance and securing victory.
This fast-paced mode keeps the action moving and the pressure high from start to finish.
Search & Destroy (S&D)
Attackers must locate and activate one or more BattleForges placed across the map, while defenders work to stop them. Once a BattleForge is activated, defenders must either disable it, eliminate all attackers, or run out the clock to secure victory.
This mode emphasizes strategy, coordination, and tactical control of key zones.
VIP
One or more BattleForges are placed at the center of the map. Up to three teams compete to take control and activate them in their team’s color. Once activated, the team earns points by carrying the device—but there’s a catch. After a set amount of time, a loud buzzer will sound, revealing your location to everyone on the field.
Move fast. Stay sharp. You're being hunted.
King of the Hill (KOTH)
In this intense two-team game mode, defenders start in the center of the map with a single mission: keep the BattleForge's energy bar full by periodically re-energizing it. Timing and coordination are critical to maintain control.
Attackers have two paths to victory—either block the defenders from recharging the BattleForge or reach it themselves to rapidly drain its energy.
Tug-of-war tension, strategic plays, and nonstop action make Power Drain a thrilling test of teamwork and timing.
CODE
In CODE mode, teams go head-to-head in a thrilling test of memory, speed, and precision. Your squad's objective: quickly crack an 8-color secret sequence before your rivals do. As the timer ticks down, your adrenaline surges with each button press—colors flash, the buzzer beeps, and tension rises with every correct entry. One mistake resets your progress, so stay sharp! Unlock the capsule first, claim victory by hitting your team's button, and earn critical points. Only the quickest thinkers and fastest hands can dominate in CODE mode—are you ready to decode your path to victory?
UPLINK (UPLK)
In Uplink mode, teamwork and timing are everything. Squads battle fiercely to control rotating communication stations, racing against the clock to secure critical signals. When your device activates, your team must quickly coordinate to lock in and transmit your uplink—every second counts as you hold the button, watch your LEDs flash, and feel the tension build with each beep. Successfully transmit your uplink to earn crucial points, then swiftly relocate as the action shifts to a new zone. Stay sharp, synchronize your strategies, and dominate the battlefield—victory belongs to the fastest and most coordinated team!
