Stellar Mercenaries has just unleashed its most expansive update to date with The Jupiter Expansion, nearly doubling the game's content. This monumental update introduces over 50 new missions spread across five thrilling worlds, along with the addition of six new weapons and ships. Players can now dive into a new side mission system that adds even more variety to the gameplay.
The Jupiter Expansion brings to life the Jovian Empire and the Pirate Council, two factions locked in a fierce struggle for dominance over Jupiter and its moons. The new missions challenge players with diverse objectives such as escort operations, piracy, train defense, and hyperspace hunts, ensuring an engaging experience.
Enhance your fleet with six new ships, each designed with unique abilities and configurations. The Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightening, and Skybreaker cater to various playstyles, allowing for extensive customization to meet any battle scenario head-on.
Combat dynamics are further enriched with the introduction of six new weapons: the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam. Players can also upgrade to Tier 4 shields and armours, and utilize new special abilities and mods like Drones, Point Defense, Critical Strike, and Missile Fire Rate, offering strategic depth to every encounter.
Enemy encounters have become more challenging with the addition of Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk-class mercenaries. These formidable foes evolve alongside the player, ensuring a continuously engaging experience. Dynamic environmental hazards such as asteroid fields, elite enemy ambushes, and the menacing Pacifier in deep space add another layer of intensity to the gameplay.
For those seeking more action beyond the main campaign, the new side mission system introduces unpredictable challenges. Additionally, 14 new music tracks enhance the immersive sci-fi atmosphere. The Hangar Manager now allows for more effective arsenal management with expanded inventory and loadout slots.
