A new mode has been revealed for EA's Star Wars Battlefront, and it should sound familiar to fans who have spent time with developer DICE's military shooter franchise Battlefield.

The newly announced mode is called Supremacy and involves players capturing and holding five control points on any given map. The catch is that these control points must be captured in order, similar to that of the Conquest mode in Battlefield. Upon starting a match, each team will be in control of two control points, with the fifth neutral point located in the middle of the map.

From there, players must battle back-and-forth in a 10-minute game of tug-o-war. Since control points must be captured in order, that means only two points will be up for grabs at any given time — one for each team. This keeps the majority of the gameplay on the frontlines, which is sure to mean near non-stop action.

"When you spawn into Supremacy, you don't have to move far to see a lot of friends — and enemies. You're thrown into a massive frontline, where your screen is filled with adversaries: infantry, Heroes, Walkers, and starfighters," said lead level designer Dennis Brännvall in an official blog post. "You can prepare for very heavy and focused Star Wars action."

Whichever team possesses the most control points at the end of the 10-minute match wins.

"Supremacy is a game mode that will excite fans of the Conquest mode from Battlefield," Brännvall continued. "That said, we've made several tweaks to improve the formula. You will always spawn close to the action when you enter Supremacy, so you'll never feel isolated from the fight. By focusing on one key point at a time, players not playing the objective and camping on a hill somewhere will be a rare sight."

Brännvall also explained how heroes will influence the tide of battle in Supremacy, with a new image from the game (which you can see below) illustrating his point.

"Using a character like Darth Vader to secure control points is great, as he can take increased damage before going down," Brännvall said. "Luke Skywalker and Boba Fett are great for moving swiftly between attacking and defensive positions, and giving you the edge against opponents in battle."

Star Wars Battlefront releases on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC on November 17. You can check out 45 minutes of alpha gameplay here.
