Team Fight Mode
Team Fight is the team deathmatch mode we're all incredibly familiar with, five players against five players with several rounds of gameplay. In Battlestate Games description "2 teams of 5 players fight for victory in 7 rounds. Capturing objective points on the map after the timer expires will also lead to victory in the round." Players are not going to be respawning instantly within Team Fight and instead, Battlestate is taking a "Counter-Strike" approach, having each team complete an objective to win a round or destroy the enemy team to prevail.
Escape from Tarkov wouldn't feel right having the stereotypical team deathmatch environment with players respawning immediately, especially within a team environment. Escape from Tarkov is tactical and death highlights your mistakes, therefore, not providing a consequence (not being able to respawn) would take the Escape from Tarkov "feel" out of Arena mode. The objective within Team Fight currently isn't known, although, holding a specific location or setting a bomb down sounds pretty standard in most cases for game modes like this.
Overrun Mode
Overrun is an interesting concept out of the new game modes, being the new player vs. environment setting being introduced into the Escape from Tarkov Arena mode. Battlestate Games describes Overrun as containing "PvE missions for 5 players. The goal of the team is to clear the location from waves of enemies, complete the given objective, and evacuate to a safe zone." Overrun is very obviously more of an adventure within Arena, leading to more interactive and team-based experiences than typical matchmaking.
We expect the Overrun game mode to explore the Arena maps in further detail, leading players to new experiences and locations on each map to extract or complete the Overrun objective. Overrun is going to provide an incredibly great environment for friends to "relax" on Escape from Tarkov, taking the fear of "real players" out of the equation and allowing friends to enjoy immersive experiences against AI players that currently aren't available within Escape from Tarkov. The mission of Overrun seems relatively simple, waves of AI are coming to destroy you and your friends, therefore you must destroy them. This leads to the thought of the introduction of a new Escape from Tarkov Arena bosses or AI enemies to face in this mode.
Last Hero Mode
The Last Hero on Escape from Tarkov Arena seems to be described as the typical free-for-all game mode, having solo players battle each other until they reach the maximum score. Battlestate's description of Last Hero states "Deathmatch between multiple players. The goal of each player is to score the most kills in the allotted time," Literally describing free-for-all perfectly.
Last Hero will be a great way for players to experience Escape from Tarkov alone, as most players struggle to enjoy Escape from Tarkov without friends due to the abundance of teams. It's very unlikely friends will be able to join each other in Last Hero matches due to farming issues and potential exploits, however, the game mode will still be enjoyable nonetheless.
Duel Mode
Escape from Tarkov Arena website also showcases another game mode coming to the DLC. However, the title of "Duel" is mentioned with no detailed description, pictures, or additional information regarding information on the mode. Therefore, it shows that Battlestate Games isn't releasing Arena in its fullest entirety, however, it's great to see that upcoming content and game modes are already being planned and featured on the site to hype players up.
The title "Duel" doesn't seem too particularly hard to predict, with players currently speculating that Duel is a 1vs1 competition similar to the "Shootout" mode. Except, we shouldn't focus on plans that are going to be a while, especially if all this new content is dropping so soon!
