The Hivebuster squad run towards the camera, away from an encroaching green venom. Keegan, center, holds a Claw Rifle. Lahni, right, holds a serrated knife. Mac, left, shoots a pistol over his shoulder at an unseen enemy.

Escape

Outrun the bomb, outsmart the Swarm, and escape the Hive! Escape is a new, aggressive, high-stakes co-op mode featuring a three-player suicide squad that must work together to take out enemy hives from within.*

Armored JD fires a new Lancer at a massive Carrier. To his right, Armored Kait is crouched and holds a pistol, ready to jump over the fortifications into battle. The enemy horde nears them – a Juvie about to breach their fortifications, the Warden wielding dual breakers, as more enemies rush forward. A giant Snatcher creature can be seen in the distance.

Horde
