What's new:
Group Battles (Platoons)
The long-awaited Platoon system is now available.
Players can now create a group directly from the Hangar and enter battles together on the same team.
How it works
Create a Platoon through the Chat menu or Friends list.
Press To Battle to queue together.
All Platoon members are guaranteed to join the same battle on the same team.
After the match ends, your Platoon remains together, allowing you to immediately queue for another battle without recreating the group.
Custom Games Removed
The previous Custom Game mode has been retired and replaced by the new Group Battles (Platoons) system, providing a faster and more seamless cooperative experience.
