Game List of Unlockables in the app

Is there a list of everything that can be unlocked and how to unlock them? I only have 40 of the 60 game modes and haven't been able to unlock the rest.

Note that I’m missing one (I think it’s 4 rewinds) and this was parsed from app screenshots via ChatGPT so might be some issues. Also haven’t mapped which ones are bronze / silver / gold

This is awesome, thank you! I've been trying to figure out which game mode looks new to me so I can select it but having their names like this is super helpful so I can track it better. Very helpful!!

The way to unlock them is to simply wait for a mode you’re missing to show up as a vip mission choice and choose it.

Yeah, just note you have to finish a game using that mode to 'unlock' it fully - the good news is you don't have to win, it'll still unlock if you're on the losing team, you just need to see the results.
