Valve has revealed the all-new gameplay mode for Team Fortress 2; Arena. In the simplest terms, Arena is team-deathmatch with capture points thrown in for good measure.That’s not all, Arena mode will also feature 2 brand new maps - Lumberyard and Ravine alongside 3 old maps (Well, Granary, Badlands) that have been re-worked for Arena mode. While Ravine keeps the familiar dust/industrial feel of other TF2 maps, Lumberyard has a completely different jungle-type environment! Check out full details as well as screenshots after the jump.
TF2 Arena keeps the class diversity of Team Fortress 2 while focusing goals around combat between two teams. Where other game modes lean towards a broad overall strategy for the team over a number of lives, Arena concentrates on the specific tactical choices the teams make in a single fight.
