New Destiny 2 PVP Mode “Countdown” Screenshots

The Destiny 2 gameplay reveal event just concluded. A new PVP mode was revealed called “Countdown.” In addition to this new mode, all Destiny 2 PVP will be 4v4.

Countdown is a new competitive mode where players spawn on either Offense or Defense, and when the round ends you swap sides and roles. The goal is to plant a bomb at the enemy base, and then defend it until it explodes. Each round is worth one point. First team to six wins. To revive a teammate, you must use a revive token. Power weapon ammo is only granted to the one player who pulls it. Working as a team is the key to victory.

A new map was also unveiled called Midtown:

Midtown is an abandoned part of the City. When the Red Legion invaded, they completely ignored this sector of the City in their takeover. The Legion deemed Midtown was of no tactical importance. Lord Shaxx agrees, which is why it was chosen as a Crucible arena in the first place.

Check out the gallery below for screenshots from the Countdown mode.

Destiny 2 releases September 8th for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Pre-order now to receive early beta access.
