Return of the “Dronapocalypse” brawl
Attention! The mode will be available from August 22 to August 28!
We know that you’ve missed the wild battles of small drones with big guns. Now it’s time for them to return!
[expand type=details]
- “Dronapocalypse” is a team PvP brawl.
- The team that inflicted more damage to an enemy leviathan or destroyed it wins the battle. If both leviathans have the same amount of durability at the end of the battle, then the battle ends in a draw.
- Battles are fought on preset drone vehicles.
- This year, we have added new leviathans and drones with new weapons.
- At the start of each battle, you are automatically given a drone with random weapons.
- The mode has respawns. Before respawning, you need to choose the drone you want to continue the battle with. The blueprints for display are randomly selected. If you don’t manage to choose a drone in the allotted time, you will automatically be given one of the offered ones.
- Choose a drone wisely and take the current situation on the battlefield into account. The right choice will help you not only destroy the enemy leviathan faster, but also buy time by controlling your opponents and defending your leviathan.
- From battle to battle, the leviathans of your or enemy team, as well as locations, may change.
- The reward for the battles of the mode is wires.

This time, players will have access to two different modes with two different leaderboards at the same time.

Attention! The modes will be available from August 26 to September 1, 15:00 GMT!
[expand type=details]
- The first mode is almost the same as the previous “Battle for uranium” variations. The only difference is the PS bracket (from 8000 to 10000) and rewards:[list]
- For moving up the leagues from “Iron” to “Bronze” you will receive Engineer badges as a reward.
- For moving to the “Silver” and “Gold” leagues, you will receive 10 uranium ore as a reward.
