Stellar Mercenaries has just launched its most expansive update to date with The Jupiter Expansion, effectively doubling the game's content. This massive update introduces new worlds, factions, missions, ships, and gear, centered around the conflict between the Jovian Empire and the Pirate Council, who are vying for dominance around Jupiter and its moons.
Dive into over 50 new missions spread across five distinct worlds, each presenting unique challenges such as escort operations, piracy, train defense, and hyperspace hunts. The update also introduces six new ships: the Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker, each with unique abilities and configurations to suit various playstyles and enhance your fleet's versatility.
Combat mechanics have been enriched with the addition of six new weapons, including the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam. Defensive options have been upgraded with Tier 4 shields and armours, and new special abilities and mods like Drones, Point Defense, Critical Strike, and Missile Fire Rate provide deeper strategic gameplay.
Enemy encounters have become more challenging with the introduction of Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk-class mercenaries, formidable foes that scale with your progress. The update also features dynamic environmental hazards, such as asteroid fields, elite enemy ambushes, and the menacing Pacifier lurking in deep space.
For those seeking more action, the new side mission system keeps gameplay fresh and unpredictable, while 14 new music tracks enhance the immersive sci-fi atmosphere. The Hangar Manager has been upgraded to allow more effective management of your arsenal, with expanded inventory and loadout slots.
