    Challenge Mode

    Bonus Modifier

    During Ruin Mode, you earn points by causing destruction to man-made structures and objects. Different targets award different amounts of points - so make sure to try and find the most valuable to maximize point gain. If you earn points continuously, you will increase your bonus modifier, allowing higher point rewards for simultaneous damage.

    You start off with a timer of 1 minute. Should you beat the minimum score designated to the level, you will gain a 15-second time, as well as unlocking the next map. Only a select few weapons are useable in Ruin Mode. As such, the weapons loadout page is significantly smaller than the single player campaign.

    Free Play

    During Free play, there is no time limit or score, you can destroy as much as you want in the sandbox environment for as long as you want. Additionally, you also have access to the LEO Exo Suit to damage buildings, as well as gaining an additional four weapons to play with on top of the weapons allowed in Challenge Mode. (Note; Three of these weapons are part of the DLC/Pre purchase bundles.)
