Capture the Flag, often abbreviated as CTF, is a multiplayer mode featured in Resistance: Fall of Man, Resistance: Retribution, and Resistance 3. Capture the Flag is a team objective game in which teams must capture the opposing team's flag and return it to their home base while defending their own. The team who reaches the flag capture limit, or has the most flag captures at the end of the game, is declared the winner. In Resistance 2, Capture the Flag is replaced by Core Control which has some minor changes from the default Capture the Flag depicted in Resistance: Fall of Man.
Resistance: Fall of Man[]

Capture the Flag in Somerset.
- Capture the Flag can be accessed from the objective games along with Meltdown, Assault and Breach.
- Ranked CTF can only be played by teams in a 16p map. The maps which support CTF are Grimsby, Manchester, Somerset and Nottingham. These 16p maps are identical to the 16p Meltdown maps and are symmetrical to provide an equal opportunity for both teams.
Resistance 3[]

A flag carrier holding a flag.
- Two teams must capture the enemy's flag while defending their own.
- Flag carriers cannot fire their weapons or sprint but can perform a melee attack with the flag.
- Flag carriers can drop and pick up their flag.
- The team that captures the flag between 1 and 7 times wins.
Resistance: Retribution[]

- The team that captures the flag 3 times, or have more flag captures than the enemy team, wins.
- The flags are often located near their spawnpoint in a opening at the opposite end of the map.
- Teams can recapture their flag by killing the flag carrier and then running over the flag, which is then transferred back to their base.
- If both teams have taken the other team's flag at the same time, neither team can score the flag until their own flag has been returned to base. On the mini-map, a player's own flag becomes visible when this occurs, however this does not happen if only their flag has been taken and not the other team's.
