In verfallenen antarktischen Militärtrainings-Basen trifft man nicht nur auf andere Mitspieler, sondern auch auf KI-Monster (PvEvP), also offenbar ählich wie im "Kriegsgebiet" von Halo 5: Guardians. Das Arsenal reicht von klassischeren Projektilwaffen bis hin zu exotischeren Science-Fiction-Wummen oder auch Schilden (zur offiziellen Website).
"players will have a chance to test their strategy and marksmanship skills against a variety of enemies, maps, and game modes in the vast arctic tundra. (...) Beginning at launch, players will also be able to compete in a multi-week Leaderboard Challenge event, where the top five winners will be rewarded with prizes, including a GeForce RTX 3080 graphics card from NVIDIA, an Oculus Quest 2, Amazon gift cards, and Frostpoint VR: Proving Grounds swag.
