New Titan and Weaponry
Luchador
Luchador is a Brawler Titan developed by DSC which is well-equipped for aggressive melee combat. Jump engines allow Luchador to leap straight into the enemy groups, dealing severe damage and temporarily weakening their weapon systems. After getting their attention, Luchador can survive the combat for a long time using its Ultimate Defence ability.

Basilisk
Krait's big brother for the Titan alpha slot. A very powerful energy machine gun for close and medium range. In addition to its high rate of fire and impressive ammo capacity, it also boasts a DoT effect: every round deals damage over time after hitting a target.
Cinder
An experimental auxiliary weapon ideal for close-range combat against multiple opponents. Deals damage to all enemies in the affected area. This weapon can only be reloaded when it is not firing due to its design features.
Venom
An acid launcher that damages enemy robots with a stream of highly corrosive liquid that eats away at armor. Each hit inflicts a powerful DoT effect.
Puncher
Heavy close-range energy machine gun with a high rate of fire. Possesses a special feature that immobilizes the target after a certain number of hits.
New Pilots
Samael Johansen
A former governor of an Icarus colony and a hardcore enthusiast of cybernization. For him, a human body is but a shell that inhibits our true potential. For better or for worse, he got rid of the shell as we know it. Idolizes long-range combat and long-term planning.
Samael's System: Every time Erebus's ability is activated, the robot deals increased damage for 7 seconds.
Madam Brijit
A mysterious pilot linked to infamous "Ghosts". She tracks down her targets and appears next to them seemingly out of nowhere. Dislikes quantum radars strongly.
Brijit Encounter: Orochi's ability has an additional charge, but the duration of each charge is decreased.
New Drone: Reviver
"Medic!" is a shout that is heard on the battlefield so often. But now, a medic will always be at hand! Reviver is an indispensable companion for those who like having a second chance in battle.
Built-in microchip: When the Robot's durability reaches zero, the drone instantly restores part of it.
Bug fixes
- Fixed issue with Mk.3 durability stats for Revenant.
- Fixed issue with special ability for Zmej Murometz. It now works as intended.
- Fixed issue with Orbital Support charging instantaneously when a beacon is captured by several teammates at once.
- Fixed Murometz/Zmej Murometz movement animations.
- Fixed issue preventing Phase Exile from cancelling out Hellburner's and Shell's explosions.
