Games Masters (Arena War)

Overview

Games Masters is an Arena War Adversary Mode for 2 to 16 players in two teams. It came with the Arena War update in December 2018. Matches take place in the Maze Bank Arena in La Puerta and unlock at Rank 1. Each round, one team drives in the arena and the other sits in the Spectator Box, and the teams swap places after every round.

How it works

• Arena Team: After a three-second countdown, the team collects as many checkpoints as it can within three minutes. Each batch of checkpoints must be cleared before the next one appears. A destroyed player is out for the rest of the round and can only watch through drones.
• Spectator Box Team: This team controls the arena's traps and remote turrets, which carry unlimited machine guns and missile launchers on a cooldown. It can also spawn unlimited RC Banditos, each able to lay three mines, and Battle Drones that carry an EMP and can self-destruct.
• The round ends when time runs out or the whole Arena Team is destroyed. Then the teams switch.
• There are three maps, one for each arena theme: Apocalypse (I), Future Shock (II) and Nightmare (III). All are open layouts with the pit lane closed and fences up.

Tips

• In the arena, take the safest route to each checkpoint rather than the fastest one, because one wreck ends your round.
• From the box, use RC Bandito mines and turrets together on the same choke point.
• Use EMP drones to stall drivers right before a trap goes off.

Rewards and unlocks
