Crossfire: Legion News

Greetings Commanders,
Another monthly update is here and adds a new fast paced game mode for you to test your command skills on, as well as friends features to help you better coordinate your battles. We’ve also made another large swath of fixes to improve your battle experiences.



Up-to 8 players enter this Free-for-all arena mode, with only one emerging victorious.
All players who enter the Round Robin mode will be matched against each other in rounds. These 1v1 rounds will be fought simultaneously on isolated battlefields within the same map

Each round starts with a short window of time to build units at your core base. You can choose any unit, from any faction, with their abilities already unlocked. Choose wisely, however, as you are limited to 400 minerals, 400 fuel, and 50 population points.

When the build phase is over, you’ll command your units to fight. Survive to win the round and score a point. Once all the rounds and face-offs have been completed, the player with the most points wins.
Quick reflexes, flexible strategies, and a deep understanding of unit synergies and counters will see you prevail.

So, if you ever wanted to know how a behemoth mech and imperator artillery tank combo would fare, or any combination of units really, then this is the game mode for you.



We’ve also added a host of new features that allow you to easily find your friends in game and set up battles either against or with each other.

Greetings commanders,

After last month's balance update, we’ve added 3 new tank type units to bolster your ranks with, each bringing new utility and abilities to the battlefield. Speaking of which, you can hone your command skills on a new 1v1 map. Furthermore, we have implemented some balance changes and a host of general fixes and improvements.

Now is an excellent time to enter the fray and to celebrate it we’re offering -50% off until March 9th.



[h3]Yeoman (Global Risk, slot 4):[/h3] Light vehicle with ground to air missile system designed for anti-air superiority.
Can be upgraded with the ability to increase attack range at the cost of becoming immobile.


[h3]Rhino (Black List, slot 8):[/h3] Heavy tank that is able to enter stealth to ambush prey. With a little patience and preplanning, the Rhino can lie in wait, gaining power that significantly increases the 1st attack dealing that delivers a devastating blow to unsuspecting enemies.


[h3]Arachne (New Horizon, slot 5):[/h3] Heavy hybrid artillery tank that functions as an anti-air unit. It can be upgraded with the ability to designate a target AoE from long range that will fire at any ground enemy that foolishly enters.




Fight over a critical sector that is divided by the Cheong-Lim Canal. Use the ample high ground to your advantage and secure the numerous choke points as you advance across the map towards your foe.
