Wildlight Bets on 5v5 Weekend to Rescue Highguard’s Fading Player Base

Wildlight Entertainment has launched a weekend experimental 5v5 mode for Highguard to address plummeting player numbers; joining the base 3v3, the new mode supports two teams of five, increases lives to 10, and slightly longer respawns; devs warn this won't fix performance and that optimisations are ongoing. The shift aims to recapture launch-day interest after PC concurrent players dropped from around 97k to under 10k within five days.

Highguard Tests a Big Weekend Shakeup with 5v5 Raid Mode

Wildlight’s free‑to‑play shooter Highguard adds a limited-time 5v5 Raid Mode for the weekend as a test to boost engagement. The mode is a separate playlist from the existing 3v3, already live on PC and consoles, and will not replace 3v3. After a launch that drew a large early surge but dwindling player counts and mixed reviews, the update aims to spark momentum, though developers warn performance could suffer with more players on the big maps.
