Call of Duty: Ghosts has added a new game mode through its latest title update.
Available on all consoles and PC, Reinforce is a new competitive round-based game mode available in Private Match.
When players are killed, they remain out of the game until a teammate captures a control point.
Games are won by eliminating the entire opposite team, capturing and holding two control points, or capturing all three flags for an instant victory.
Elsewhere, the latest Call of Duty: Ghosts update makes anti-cheat improvements, fixes countless bugs and addresses the Squad Mate Killstreak perk.
Console-specific improvements have also been introduced on Xbox One and PS4
