Beta Content: 

Weekend 1 of the Private Multiplayer Beta features 10 Playable specialists, 6 maps, and 4 modes.

Modes: 

  • Control
    • Our signature new game mode designed to bring out the best of tactical Specialist gameplay.
  • Chaos Team Deathmatch
    • A playlist that takes our ever-popular non-objective based game modes and adds a twist. The format here is 6 vs. 6, and allows two of each Specialist per team for chaotic fun. Includes Team Deathmatch and Kill Confirmed*.
  • Capture Moshpit
    • This playlist combines our fast-paced favorite objective modes, Domination and Hardpoint, for palm-sweating action.
  • Search & Destroy*
    • If you’re into slower-paced strategy, this one is for you. With new Specialist weapons and equipment, the tension is palpable.

Maps: 

  • Frequency: A covert listening station deep in the mountainous region of Hunan Province is being used to track strategic targets across the globe.
  • Contraband: Surveillance of an international arms smuggling operation has uncovered this shipping hub on a remote, uncharted island off the coast of Colombia.
  • Seaside: An anti-government protest in this quaint coastal Spanish town grew out of control and forced a military shutdown.
  • Payload: A defensive ICBM launch facility deep in an Icelandic mountain range has been infiltrated by hostile forces attempting to steal a nuclear warhead.
  • Hacienda: A lavish vineyard estate situated on a quiet lake in the Spanish countryside, home to a high-ranking crime syndicate boss.
