All players will have access to one premium mission every week.

Raiders of the Broken Planet is a campaign-based indie game with Triple-A production values that includes a starter campaign that players are be able to play for free and, if they like the game enough, invest 9.99€/$ in one of its premium campaigns.

Having a substantial part of Raiders of the Broken Planet offered for free, the game is labelled “Free to Play” in First Party game stores, and that has led to some confusion and discomfort among players who expected to find the usual F2P formula within.

For the game to progress, we need to satisfy that perception in a way that brings more players in and improves the game to be a better experience for all users.

We started by adding the possibility to play with all the game’s characters and interact with the progression and economy systems in the Eternal Soldier free starter campaign. Then we introduced the Invitation system and the Mission Unlocking for Gold. Now, we take a step further with the Mission of the Week.

From now on, all players will have access to one premium mission every week. This mission will rotate each week. This way, players who don’t own the premium campaigns will be able to play through the missions more easily, in addition to the current Mission Unlocking for Gold and the Invitation system.



This will help bring in more players and open new possibilities to veterans:

• As it has always been, only premium campaign owners can be awarded invitations. This is a key feature that eases progression and helps unlock new characters.

• Veterans will now have easier access to non-premium users who play the game and are hoping to be invited to other missions. These people will be easier to find; they will gather in the current Mission of the Week.

• Whatever map is currently chosen as Mission of the Week will have more players on it. This will lead to faster matchmaking times if you include that mission in your queue list.

We’ll announce what new Mission of the Week is available every Monday in all our Social Media channels. This is just the first of the many major changes we are implementing in Raiders of the Broken Planet based in the players’ feedback. We hope you enjoy them!

See you at the Broken Planet.

80 new Faction Cards are now available in Raiders of the Broken Planet, so you can give your Raiders the edge in battles!

As the war for control of the Broken Planet intensifies, all four factions have been honing their martial skills and improving their strategies, and now they are deadlier than ever!

Today, MercurySteam has released a new Faction Cards pack, including 10 cards for each Faction plus their Rare counterparts. Now all Raiders of the Broken Planet players can customize their characters to suit any gaming style, either playing as Raiders or as Antagonists.

Each Faction Card is designed to subtly enhance the character’s performance during the game, while keeping the essence and character of the race it represents in mind. This way, the vengeful Locals will receive Cards like “Merciless”, that increases their weapons’ damage output after a kill (something Doldren will surely enjoy!), while the cold and calculating Fifth Council characters, like Konstantin and Ginebra, can deploy Cards such as “Firewall”, reducing the damage received when they have maximum health.

The Hades Division mercenaries, including Lycus and Mikah, also get their share of new Cards, like “Nerves of Steel” that allows them to reload faster after being hit, while the savage Umbra Wardogs can find “Kamikaze” among their Cards -increasing the damage of their first strike after performing a jump.

The new Faction Cards Pack for Raiders of the Broken Planet is now available for all players. Let us know your favourite character configurations and share them with the community on Twitter, Facebook and in the Raiders of the Broken Planet’s official forum.

See you on the Broken Planet.

Earlier this week we shared with you the Patch 07 Designers’ Notes that will include the rebalancing of some characters and missions. We expected V07 to go live today, but the submission process took a bit longer than expected and it will finally go out early next week. To make the wait more bearable, we’d like to share with you a sneak peek of what awaits us when the Hades Betrayal campaign arrives! (We’ll announce the release date in due time, no worries).

As you might have guessed, the third campaign will see the Raiders go head to head against the fearsome Hades Division, an elite mercenary outfit that previously counted Lycus, Hans and Mikah among their ranks. If Harec’s team is going to have any chance of defeating Krausher’s Hades Division, it will be by convincing her most trusted lieutenant, Ayana Kwena, to betray him.



But the Hades Division won’t be the only bad guys around! The Umbra Wardogs have a long-standing enmity with the Hades Division, stretching way back from the days before the Broken Planet’s invasion.



The Hades Betrayal campaign will feature an incredible level of visual variety, and our concept and environment artists have outdone themselves creating really moody, evocative landscapes never seen before on the Broken Planet.





As usual, our concept artists put an incredible attention to detail when designing the Raiders’ weapons, making them look exotic and futuristic while retaining a sense of functionality and authenticity. Which Raider will be using of this pistol?





And of course we have the missions themselves. Our designers are putting the finishing touches to the most hard-fought and dangerous battles to date! Will the Raiders be able to defeat the best equipped fighting force in the galaxy?



Lastly, as was the case with the previous campaigns, we’ll meet new Raiders who will join the team in their guerrilla war against the human invaders, each with their unique fighting style and special abilities. Now, who is this guy exactly?



That’s all for now. If you enjoyed this Spoiler Alert Special, let us know on Twitter and Facebook and we might come back with a sequel soon!

See you on the Broken Planet, Raiders.
