How it plays
Friends can share a team against the AI, which is the gentlest way to learn the four factions, or set up their own matches of up to four against four.
Matches reward reading the map and keeping squads alive more than fast clicking.
The campaigns are single-player.
Each player needs a copy, and console players only meet others on the same console.
