War Robots News

Good day, commanders! Welcome update 5.3, with new operations feature, new robots, modules and rebalance. Let's go!

For every battle you receive Operation XP and Operation levels, unlocking extra rewards. You can purchase Operation Pass to get even more loot — including exclusive versions of robots, legendary pilots and more.

With Operations, there come other changes:

• Regular daily tasks reduced. However, you should receive more gold than before overall — with added rewards from the Operation challenges and the Operation itself
  
• New post-combat screen
• Ranking by Honor instead of damage

Behemoth is designed to be a powerful sniper: in a travel mode this robot has 2 heavy slots active, but can enter the stationary mode to unfold 2 more. 4 heavy slots total — that's quite a punch!

Phantom is a saboteur with 1 medium and 2 light slots. By pressing the ability it leaves a translocator device to which Phantom can instantly teleport by reactivating the ability. While translocator is active, Phantom moves faster and takes less damage.

Fortifier improves your robot's shields in various ways:

• For physical shields (including ECU) Fortifier increases durability
  
• For energy shields (including Ancile) and Aegis it increases durability and regeneration rate
  
• Absorber isn't affected by Fortifier
  

Phase shift is a powerful module for extra defense and playmaking under heavy duress. Upon activation, shifts you to a parallel dimension for a short duration. While this effect is active, you are immune to all damage but cannot shoot.



Changes to

• Weapons - Orkan, Gust, Taran, Redeemer, Calamity, Marques
  
• Robots - Ares, Hades, Nemesis, Bulgasari, Falcon, Raven, Griffin
  
• Modules - Quantum Radar, Battle Born, Last Stand

Now Honor is an integral stat that shows your overall performance in battle. Beacons, kills, repairs, broken shields, and many other achievements increase your Honor and affect your standing in the combat results.

How to earn honor

• Do damage
  
• Repair
  
• Destroy
  
• Capture beacons
  
• Save up tokens in Free-For-All
  
• Fight to the end
  
• Win
  

But wait, there's more: you get more Honor in higher leagues. Fighting there is harder, and taking that extra challenge has to be rewarded as well.

• [Pilots] Fixed a bug with Quartermaster skill: now it should be properly usable when you're low on power cells
  
• [Pilots] Fixed a bug with Adamant skills causing them to remain active when requirements are not met
  
• [Pilots] Multiple minor fixes
  
• [Tyr] Fixed placement of top weapons on Tyr. This should prevent homing-missiles from hitting the ground when they shouldn't
  
• [Visual] Fixed a bug causing lighting in hangar to become overly bright in certain conditions
  
• [Performance] Fixed a bug causing sudden FPS drops on certain devices

Hello, players! The big news here. Lore is finally coming to War Robots! What is the story of this world? How does it work? What are factions? Why do we fight?

Meet the brand-new feature, real people in War Robots. Pilots!



Human characters with stories and personalities — for the first time in War Robots!

Pilots are available starting at account level 23. Watch this video for an extensive overview of the feature.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOC11Yy5Bw0



Anticontrol

[Passive] Protects against Lock-down and Suppression

The module activates automatically upon contacting Lock-down or Suppression. It instantly removes both of these effects, making you immune to them for a short duration.

If 3 maxed modules are installed, your robot becomes permanently immune to both effects.

Advanced Repair Unit

[Active] Repairs quicker

Restores a considerable portion of robot's durability. More effective than the regular Repair Kit but requires more Power Cells.

Death Mark

[Active] Makes an enemy vulnerable to all damage

The module marks the chosen target, so it will temporarily receive more damage from all sources. The mark is visible for all teammates, which is useful when you need to focus fire on one target.



We have remade the profile screen to fit Pilots and Modules and also created some space for future improvements.

Also, there are now advanced options for status effects indication. Now you can select whether or not you want to see the full list of status effects affecting your current target (by default, you only see the strongest active effect).

• Fixed a bug causing advanced options to reset after changing them in combat
  
• Fixed an exploit allowing to be logged into the game from multiple devices
  
• Fixed an issue causing some equipment to take longer to upgrade. Affected equipment: Ballista, Flux, Exodus, Spark, Raven, Bulwark, Falcon

Hey there, commanders! War Robots is 5 years old. Yes, that's right - 5! The anniversary update (which, coincidentally, has the same number) comes with a huge pack of cool things. Here they are!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-DdjtIRktU



During the event, ALL equipment upgrades require 25% less silver. Great time to give your hangar a makeover!



Complete event tasks, get tokens and win new equipment. Each day you receive 3 new tasks. If you complete all three, you get enough to open one crate.

Here's what you can get from the crates:

• Full robots: Ragnarok Squad, Eldritch Ares, Imperial Hades, Infinity Nemesis
  
• Ragnarok Squad components (500-2500)
  
• Blaze, Marquess, Calamity components (1000 or full weapon)
  
• Au: 300 - 1000
  
• Power Cells: 1500
  

Arena is a competitive mode where all contestants have same hangars and same starting conditions. Everyone contributes some gold to the prize pool and fights for the top prize. If you're good at War Robots, it is a great time to prove it!



During the event, you can get Eldritch Ares and Imperial Hades from the Special Delivery crates. Later on they will be added to the Super Chest.



Shapeshifter robots Loki, Tyr and Fenrir will first be available in Special Delivery crates during the event.

Original, non-dragon versions of these weapons will first be available in Special Delivery crates during the event.

• Eldritch Ares

Good day, pilots! Update 4.8 comes with reduced upgrade timers, Black Market improvements and Ares paint jobs. Without further ado, let's dig in!

This set of changes is the biggest one we ever introduced. If you get something from the chests, it will either be universal resources (Silver, Gold, Keys) or items you can immediately start using.

We also got rid of Boosters. As handy as they are, that's not a very fun reward to get — so we removed them from all chests.

In a nutshell:

• Bronze Chest - only resources
  
• Silver Chest - resources and items
  
• Gold Chest - more resources and even better items
  
• Super Chest - strongest, newest items

To prevent FFA shootouts from dragging, we reduce the amount of respawns a robot can have by increasing the token cost of 2nd, 3rd and 4th respawns.

• March 5 - Nemesis
  
• March 12 - Hades
  
• March 19 - Ares
  

• Hellburner's ability sound now plays properly in sync with its animation
  
• Lock-down Ammo effect doesn't trigger after module's duration is over
  
• Improved stability across all devices
