DICE has lifted the curtain on all the modes available in Battlefield 4\u2019s multiplayer, including Conquest, Domination, Obliteration, Defuse, Team Deathmatch, Rush, and Squad Deathmatch.<\/p>\n

Conquest is the \u201cdefinitive Battlefield mode\u201d, which is a favourite in the franchise now for its ticket-draining, capture-the-flag style gameplay.<\/p>\n

Domination is an infantry-only mode that made its debut in Battlefield 3: Close Quarters. \u201cIn contrast to Conquest, capturing flags is much quicker in Domination, and the ticket count is lower than in Conquest,\u201d making for a much faster and intense experience.<\/p>\n

Obliteration is known as the \u201dBattlefield Moments Generator\u201d, because it often results in the craziest things happening. A bomb spawns at a random location on the map. Both teams must fight to pick up the bomb, drop it off at one of their opponent\u2019s three objectives, arm it, and destroy the objective. Once a bomb has detonated, the next one randomly spawns in a new location and the chaos starts all over.<\/p>\n

\"Obliteration<\/a><\/p>\n

The new game mode, Defuse, is a 5 vs 5 mode which assigns only a single-life per round. Teams can win by eliminating the enemy squad, or arming and detonating a military objective that they own (similar to the M-COM stations in Rush mode.)<\/p>\n

Rush is a BF3 favourite, and returns the struggle to destroy one another’s MCOM stations in each zone of the map. If the attacking team is successful, two more MCOM stations are spawned deeper on the map. Rush continues until the attacking team has destroyed all six of their enemies MCOMs, or when the defending team has successfully bled the attacking team\u2019s respawn tickets dry.<\/p>\n

The other more \u201cconventional\u201d modes are Team Deathmatch (designed for 20 players across all platforms) and Squad Deathmatch (designed for 16 players across all platforms).<\/p>\n

So in total there are 7 different game modes available and 10 maps to tear up; the 10 maps are:\u00a0Siege of Shanghai,\u00a0Paracel Storm,\u00a0Zavod 311,\u00a0Lancang Dam,\u00a0Flood Zone,\u00a0Rogue Transmission,\u00a0Hainan Resort,\u00a0Dawnbreaker,\u00a0Operation Locker,\u00a0Golmud Railway<\/p>\n

EA also announced the release date for the next-gen versions of Battlefield 4, with the Xbox One and PS4 editions arriving on 21 and 29 November 2013 respectively.<\/p>\n

For current-gen, the game will release on 1 November 2013 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.<\/p>\n

In addition to a new\u00a0multiplayer trailer<\/a>, DICE also revealed that Battlefield 4 will be featuring a\u00a0test range<\/a>\u00a0for players who are a bit hesitant with vehicles, to have a fly or drive around, before heading into a real battle and turning your whole squad into a kamikaze-package.<\/p>\n

MyGaming recently got hands-on with Battlefield 4 at Gamescom 2013, and uncovered\u00a05 Battlefield 4 features worth fighting for<\/a>.<\/p>\n
