According to Bluehole's most recent Steam blog post, "As the sun slowly climbs over the horizon, five soldiers stand ready. Armed to the teeth and kitted out for battle, these warriors know things are about to heat up the cool desert morning. Their orders as tall as the shadows cast by the rising sun, the Desert Knights are ready and aim to be the last squad standing."
Players will be tricked out in level three gear and a standard crate weapon with the sole goal of eliminating as many opponents as possible in order to rack up points for your squad. The first team of five to achieve 200 points (or the one with the highest score when the 15 minute timer runs out) wins!
