Patch Notes:

UPDATE

Greetings MechWarriors,

It is said that the wail of the Banshee foretells death, and that the Wolverine is known for displaying unparalleled fearlessness and aggression to predator and prey alike. Now you can do both, as Banshee and Wolverine are available for C-Bills!

Want to really wail on the enemy? Make your Banshee extra scary by taking part in the Banshee Customization Sale!

Are you howling for more? You can now see all the details on your owned Mechs from the Mech Details screen before dropping into battle. We thank all players who recommended this feature and are eager to hear back on how we can further improve the game experience.

Achievements Unlocked!
Starting today, Achievements are now available to track and collect! Your Stats are reset but you can see your archived stats in your profile.

See you on the Battlefield

Matt Newman

HGNs and Victors got hit with the nerf bat. Damn... As if the Jump Jet nerf didn't hit them hard enough!
