Four modes are included in the mobile game. The aforementioned story campaign serves as the main mode but there is also the series' first attempt at an official multiplayer mode. Three teams of ten players fight across a map as they secure bases to capture points. Co-op missions set up teams of four as you're tasked with clearing out waves of enemies with your squad. Challenge mode tasks you with earning the highest score in either the Destruction, Wingsuit and Race challenges.
Just Cause Mobile will be a free-to-play mobile game and will likely include additional in-game transactions.
