Matches played in the Maelstrom Protocol are played on the critical difficulty and task players with completing objectives in nine subzones with a pool of six Operators. Objectives must be completed or failed in order to progress to the next subzone. Every subzone has a unique Parasite Mutation Objectives within matches will always remain the same during a week. This incentivizes players to strategize and change tactics should missions fail. At the end of each week, Operator pools, objectives, and Parasite Mutations will be rotated accordingly.
The first subzone will give players fifteen minutes to complete the objective and move to the next subzone. For every three subzones completed, the time limit is reduced and enemy difficultly is increased. By the ninth subzone, players will only have eight minutes to complete the objective.
The amount of resources available will also be reduced significantly as players progress through subzones. Medkits are no longer available after the third subzone. In addition, Ability Recharges and REACT gear cannot be found after subzone six, While Ammo boxes disappear after the eighth subzone. Due to the overlap of all these rules, Subzone Nine has no supplies. As such, it is advised to remain in the subzone after the objective is completed, search for all supplies your squad can acquire, and only move to the airlock when 3-2 minutes are left. Should an Operator become MIA, they can be rescued in a normal Incursion. Successful runs will reward players with large amounts of XP which will go toward a player's ranking and challenge progress.
