How it plays
A full squad of five gets the most out of itDrone scouting, callouts and agreeing where to breach decide most rounds, and one death sits you out until the next.
Friends can also set up 5v5 custom matches among themselves.
Quick Play, Unranked and Dual Front are free, while Ranked needs a paid edition.
The learning curve is steep, so mixed groups do best when the experienced players coach.
