Highguard is a free-to-play team-based PvP shooter from developers behind Apex Legends and Titanfall. It was first revealed, somewhat infamously, at the end of 2025’s The Game Awards.
The objective is to secure an item known as the Shieldbreaker, which allows teams to break into their rival’s territory and take it for themselves.
