Domination is Battlefield 6’s small, fast version of Conquest: 32 players capture and hold fixed control points on a small or medium Combat Zone with no vehicles. It is one of the Close Quarters Battle modes and the usual home of the infantry-only maps.

Domination takes Conquest’s flag logic and compresses it: three or so control points close together, 16 players a side, no vehicles, and rounds measured in minutes rather than the better part of an hour. It is the mode most often played on Empire State and Saints Quarter and on the Close Quarters Combat Zones carved out of the larger maps.

Because the points are close, the fight rarely leaves them, and the mode is as much about controlling the routes between flags as holding the flags themselves.

Hold two of three. The team that owns the two points nearest its spawn and contests the third usually wins; the team that chases all three usually loses them all. Assault and Support are the core classes, Engineer’s Flak Jacket helps in the grenade-heavy corridors, and a Recon Motion Sensor on the middle point is worth more than a sniper rifle. Destruction changes the routes between flags during the round, so re-check the map after a building comes down.
