The Mutation mode is a limited-time mode which features the standard 6v6 modes like Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination, and Hardpoint. Here teams are divided into Mutants and Humans; after every two rounds, the players switch teams.

The human operators are the same with players choosing their preferred skins. They spawn with increased ammo capacity and can also get killstreaks while trying to take down the mutant threat.

Mutation mode abilities

On the other hand, the mutant operators, instead of getting the traditional loadouts, will get four unique classes with different abilities:

  • Mutated Leaper: You can leap at your enemies and become enraged to get faster movement speed and melee damage. You’ll also have the ability to detect enemies around corners and toss a snapshot grenade to reveal enemy operator locations to your team.
  • Radioactive Beast: You’ll turn into a half-dog half-demon hybrid. Howl at the, to increase the health and movement speed of your allies. You’ll also have the ability to use your enhanced senses to detect nearby enemies.

  • Contaminated Sludger: This mutant distorts enemy sights with Smoke Grenades and can attack them with a close-range acid blast that slows down victims. As the ultimate sacrifice, you can explode in a large radius of sludge and take your enemies with you.
  • Camouflaged Sneaker: You’ll become invisible and can stun and slow down your enemies with a deadly energy projectile. And for a more active approach, you can attack your enemies with an electrified leap.
  • Mutant Juggernaut: If you rack up enough kills you may get the chance to become a Mutant Juggernaut and terrify your foes.
