Rush, the new 5v5 mode, replaces Volta and offers a fresh gameplay experience. Features of Rush include:
- Smaller teams with full-sized goals: A dynamic twist on traditional 11v11 matches.
- Competitive Leagues: Ascend and descend through competitive leagues, adding depth to the mode.
Rush provides an opportunity for players to bond with friends and enjoy a break from the intensity of larger matches while contributing to their club’s profile.
