Arcade

Battle your way through an endless stream of bots as you master each weapon the game has to offer. Arcade is designed to introduce players to the gameplay and provide a challenging single-player experience. In this throwback to classic games that just got harder with no end, pull in as many points as possible before your inevitable defeat.

Arena

You and up to three friends compete in the arena with 5 different modes, adjusted to suit your fine taste. Lots of weapons or just a few? Fully armoured or one hit kills? Play the way you want.


Don't have friends? Hone your skills against computer-controlled players so that you're ready when you do get some.
