Content Update Beta begins today!

Attention Troopers!

Another major free content update is now LIVE on the Open Beta branch! This update brings new units, mission improvements, and performance improvements to the base game and both DLCs.

Note that all Territory Mode content has been disabled in this beta update, but expect another major update for this upcoming new game mode soon. Please see the bottom of this post if you want to access the old Territory Mode beta on a separate Steam branch.

Base game: New units & improvements

The Kwalasha campaign adds new units with unique roles. The M4A Grinder is a light weapons platform capable of delivering rapid fire. Two new bipeds - the M9A Sledgehammer, which carries a heavy mortar for long-range support, and the M6A Jaeger with its heavy anti-armor gun and spotter drone - provide new mobile firepower. And finally, the Fortis E-Pulse Troopers wear heavy armor suits for a strong frontline defense.

Raising Hell DLC: New units & improvements

New mercenary units and mission updates add versatile support to the field. The Drilling Biped is a rugged vehicle that repairs machines, builds defenses, and holds its own in close combat. The Hunter-Killer Merc is quite the opposite: delivering precise long-range strikes, aided by a companion drone for spotting and close support. Lastly, the Merc Squad has also been upgraded with varied weapons for greater adaptability.

Urban Onslaught DLC: Improvements

Missions have been updated to feature the new units and the A-12 Pegasus gunship can now unleash relentless rocket barrages on designated areas on the ground.

Many missions have been rebalanced or updated, integrating these new units in their respective campaigns. We recommend you start a new playthrough to get the best experience! 

Performance improvements

Significant optimizations alleviate the slowdown experienced during long play sessions and on larger maps, ensuring smoother gameplay across the board. However, this is still in Beta, and we are working on more improvements.

Note to our Map Makers

This update includes significant balance changes! If you're creating or maintaining custom maps, be sure to playtest your maps to ensure everything still plays as intended. 

We’ve also added a few new decorations—and we can’t wait to see how you’ll use them in your creative community maps!
