Season 2: Power Surge – Electrifying New Update Lands June 17!

Prepare for the Power Surge when Season 2 launches on June 17! Soup up new War Robots Loki and Mesa, charge into battle in the new Spearhead game mode, boost your arsenal with the Scavenger’s Haul Battle Pass, take control of the new Titan Volta, and much more.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

The battle for Terminus continues. Despite the ongoing blockade, Pilots have adapted and found new sources of supplies. Some have learned to scavenge and build, while others turned to smuggling. But just as life on Tortuga seems to be getting back on track, the Warp network collapses, paralyzing all activities in the Wild Ten. With everything at stake, it’s up to the Pilots to fix what's broken. 
[h2]Power Up With A New Playtest[/h2]
Eager to try out the new content below before the launch of Season 2? Join our upcoming playtest from May 15–16 (Steam and MY.GAMES Launcher only). Keep your eyes peeled for more information coming soon!
[h2]Scavenger’s Haul Battle Pass[/h2]
Boost your Scavenger’s Haul Battle Pass (arriving June 17) to unlock dozens of adrenaline-pumping rewards, including exclusive cosmetics, battle gear, and a new War Robot: Loki!

That’s not all. On July 29, unlock the Spark Of Ingenuity Battle Pass, containing even more incredible rewards, including another new War Robot: Mesa! 
[h2]New Titan: Volta [/h2]
Turn up the voltage with a brand new Titan: Volta. This live wire Titan is the first quadruped to be built on Tortuga, and it’s as aggressive as it is electrifying. With its ability to double jump and hover, these new traversal capabilities are sure to set Volta apart from other Titans on the battlefield. 

Activate its electric weapon, generate a moving barrier, or block projectiles and deal damage to enemies foolish enough to pass through.


[h2]Map Updates: Spectrum & Fissure[/h2]
Much has happened in the Wild Ten since the beginning of the blockade. Freecon rebuilt the Spectrum Research Facility, seemingly preparing for the next stage of their mysterious experiment, and the Fissure mining site was taken over by Warp anomalies. Despite that, mining operations here are still ongoing. 

Have any of these events caused the Warp blackout? At this point, we can only speculate.

What we know for sure is that both the Spectrum and Fissure maps received a massive facelift, along with better weather setups and improved terrain readability.
[h2]New Game Mode: Spearhead[/h2]
Powerslide into a brand-new game mode: Spearhead

Two teams fight over randomly spawning Warp Probes to stabilize Warp in the region. Locate and capture them first to earn Points! Hit the Points cap, stay ahead, or eliminate all enemies to win. 


[h2]New War Robots: Loki & Mesa [/h2][h3]Loki[/h3]
Trickster by name, trickster by nature. Loki's ability to use holographic projections makes it an excellent infiltrator and scout. Its armor is strong for its class, and its anti-shield firepower means it can easily take on flankers, though it should avoid encounters with heavier foes. Add Loki to your Drop Team and see what this stealthy War Robot can do. 

Unlock Loki through the Scavenger’s Haul Battle Pass (coming June 17).


[h3]Mesa[/h3]
Defend ‘til the end with Mesa, a strong defender with amazing ally-protecting abilities. Deploy barriers to shield Mesa and its teammates from projectiles, or unleash a biotech drone that follows alongside it, buffing allies and weakening enemies in the area. 

Make Mesa your mate later in Season 2 through the Spark Of Ingenuity Battle Pass (coming July 22). 
[h2]New Hero Pilot: Sora Sing[/h2]
Unleash the sparky Sora Sing as your War Robot’s new Pilot. This infamous femme fatale has found herself with a public persona she may not deserve, taking the fall for war crimes which saw her stripped of her citizenship, and expatriated to the Wild Ten—the only place that would take her. 

While her fellow Pilots may not trust her just yet, her talents hit all the high notes, and her ability to reload faster and boost damage (among others) make her a more than capable Pilot. Remember, it’s not over until the Sora Sings…

Sora Sing will be available in the Store.
[h2]Updated Leagues Rewards System[/h2]
In a recent Dev Diary, we announced that rewards from previous League ranks would also be earnable. For example, if you reach Gold in Milestone 1, you will receive Bronze, Silver, and Gold rewards. However, if you reach Diamond in Milestone 2, you will receive only the Milestone 2 rewards for Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Emerald, and Diamond.

We are not changing the way that Milestone rewards work in Season 2, meaning that if a player joins during Milestone 2, they cannot obtain the Milestone 1 rewards 

The total number of leagues and requirement points will stay the same, but players will drop Leagues at the beginning of Season 2. For example, if you land in Silver at the end of Season 1, you will begin in Bronze in Season 2.

For more information on recently implemented changes and exciting upcoming events, keep an eye out for a new Q&A video, info on an upcoming Playtest, and a Leagues Event.

War Robot Spotlight: Scorpion

As a Wild Ten Pilot, it’s good to get to grips with your partner in battle—the War Robot. With 18 War Robots to choose from, each with their own unique attributes, picking the best ally for each fight is crucial.

Take to the battlefield in Scorpion, a War Robot that deals devastating damage behind enemy lines.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
[h2]COMBAT ANALYSIS[/h2]
  • War Robot Model: Scorpion
  • Class: Flanker
  • Dominion: FortEvo

Calculating and creeping, Scorpion has the ability to sneak up on foes and dispatch them like a true assassin.

With a real sting in its tail, this War Robot was created to pick off stragglers with its Whiplash Core Gear. In the right hands, it can take down a whole squad of enemies, one after the other.


[h2]UNDER THE HOOD[/h2]
Make the most of your War Robot by learning about its Core Gear and recommended Weapons, Supply Gear, and Cycle Gear.

Don’t forget—you can always customize any War Robot with your favorite elements! 
  • Whiplash (Core Gear): A homing projectile that deals damage on a hit, then additional damage per second to all Modules It also recharges if a target is destroyed while active.
  • Tusk (Light Weapon - Kinetic): Charge up this ballistic shotgun to gore enemies at longer range and with reduced spread.
  • Gamma Beam (Cycle Gear): Locks onto an enemy, dealing damage per second that increases based on proximity.
  • Repulsor (Supply Gear): Deals damage to enemies and pushes them and you away from each other.
