Our continuing coverage of Star Citizen’s annual confab, CitizenCon continues here with the release of an entirely new game mode for the non-persistent universe piece of the game. At the moment, we have Arena Commander in game for a variety of spaceship based combat modes as well as Star Marine for FPS combat modes. Well today, those two get combined along with the added bonus of ground vehicles into the new “Theatres of War” mode.

Theatres of War is an approximately half hour session which will take place across up to 3 “phases” with up to 40 players in it. The phases combine to create one “theatre” which has also been pulled from Star Citizen Lore – so players are reliving battles of “old.” Phase one starting out on foot with the traditional FPS type of match. Players will be on foot and work cooperatively to establish/capture a base using a variety of ballistic and energy weapons, mostly futuristic takes on the traditional pistol, assault rifle, shotgun and sniper rifle as well as the items such as grenades and health applicators. If they are successful, the game moves on to phase 2. If they are not, the game ends and the defenders win.
