Steel Division 2 - Destruction Mode Out Now

Hello commander,

We are happy to share with you the news that the new Destruction Mode for Steel Division 2 is available now!

For those of you who don’t know, the new Destruction mode brings a completely new battlefield experience, awarding points for destroying enemy units. We have updated 10 maps to use the Destruction mode, including new side-reinforcement paths, a new layout of objectives that provide income, and more!



That’s not all: together with today’s roll-out of the Destruction mode, we have also launched a new update for Steel Division 2 bringing a host of improvements and fixes to our game.

We have listened to a lot of your feedback, especially with regard to the new Fate of Finland History DLC. For instance, the new patch has increased the aggressiveness of the Soviet AI in the strategic Army General campaign significantly. Be prepared for a tough fight!



Destruction mode has been with us for quite some time now, making its first, glorious appearance in our golden oldie RTS R.U.S.E. The idea behind the mode is simple: blow up things, get points for it. The player with the most points after a set amount of time wins! We have tweaked Destruction mode over time, and the latest incarnation, the Steel Division 2 version, you can play now by downloading the free Reinforcement Pack.

Destruction mode plays a bit different compared to a standard Conquest or Breakthrough game in Steel Division 2.

• Destroy enemy units and get Victory Points for the destroyed unit’s purchase value. Reach the Victory Point limit set in the lobby to win a game!
  
• Objectives on the maps now provide your income. All battlegroups feature the same default income rate. Control all objectives for a Sudden Death win!
  
• Ten updated Steel Division 2 maps featuring not only a new layout of objectives but also side-entry reinforcement points. Each side controls half of the map at the start of a Destruction game.
  
• Each Destruction mode map can also be played in Meeting Engagement and Closer Combat variant.
