Like traditional Resurgence, the goal in High Trip Resurgence is to be thelast squad standingin a match with120 players. While Resurgence mode is typically played on small to mid-sized maps, High Trip takes place on a much larger landscape to support the higher player count. Each player drops in as part of a four-person squad using a randomized,pre-determined loadout. Sometimes, you might get lucky and start with your preferred weapon, but other times, you’ll end up with something you’re unfamiliar with.

To compensate for the randomness of your loadouts, High Trip Resurgence features a unique system that allows you tocollect Shadesto gain powerful perks. These are often foundin cachesand can significantly boost your performance. Although eliminating opponents remains the primary objective, it’s a wise move to loot early and accumulate Shades. Unfortunately, this also means enemy Operators can do the same, so those same advantages might end up being used against you.

On the bright side, you don’t have to worry too much about being eliminated in Resurgence-based modes since you may respawn if a teammate survives for a short time.

All Shade abilities in High Trip Resurgence

Here’s a look at all the abilities you can earn inWarzone’sHigh Trip Resurgence:

Most Shade abilities are pretty straightforward, boosting your movement, damage, and overall combat effectiveness. I noticed Trail Blazing seems to make your jumps higher, allowing you to reach rooftops in a single leap. Of all the perks, Hyperware is probably the best, as it marks enemies in bright red even from a distance. It’s possible to collect and activate all five boosts at once, giving you a substantial advantage. Occasionally, you don’t even need to collect them when the Full Power perk is granted to all players, instantly boosting everyone’s performance.

The abilities will particularly come in handy when Resurgence mode is temporarily deactivated. This slot is the one time when eliminations function similarly to Battle Royale, where your squad will lose if all members are downed.
