Breakaway

Breakaway Overview

In Breakaway, matches revolve around controlling a single objective, the relic, and converting that control into points by scoring on the opposing team. Developed and published by Amazon Game Studios, the game frames its 4v4 combat like a hybrid of hero brawling and competitive sports: teams clash in compact arenas, pass the relic between allies, and look for an opening to push into the goal. Each match plays out as a best-of-five series, and a round can end either through a successful score or by eliminating the entire enemy squad.

One of Breakaway’s defining twists is the “buildables” system. Every champion brings two structures they can place on the map, and those constructions stay active until opponents tear them down. That persistent battlefield presence encourages planning, such as blocking routes, creating safe pockets to reset, or shaping where the next team fight happens. Arenas also include two crystals that teams can pressure for temporary advantages, adding another layer of risk-reward decision-making beyond simply chasing the relic.

Team composition matters, even in a lighter, more arcade-like MOBA format. Characters are designed around familiar roles (damage, frontline, support), and success typically comes from coordinating engages, protecting the carrier, and knowing when to pass rather than forcing a solo run. The game’s myth-inspired locations, including places like the Styx and Atlantis, give the matches a playful backdrop, while its presentation leans into readability with real-time stats, replay-style highlights, and built-in Twitch features meant to make streaming and spectating smoother.
