How a match works
Step
Up to 24 players split across both factions, and each side also has NPC squads fighting alongside them. The front line shifts as one team gains or loses ground, so the fight stays fluid from start to finish.
- Push the front line work with your teammates and your faction's NPC squads to drive the battle toward the enemy base.
- Break the shield the enemy Core is protected by a shield; you have to destroy it before you can reach the Core itself.
- Destroy the Core once the shield is down, pour everything into the Core to win the match.
