Master of Orion’s nomination is not only a recognition of our work at NGD and Wargaming, but it also rewards all the input that you guys have been giving us since day 1 of Early Access. Without your precious feedback and your support we would not be where we are today, so we really want to say something that can’t be said enough times: Thank you, dear explorers!
We also wanted to share some news regarding upcoming updates: an impactful (free!) update is planned and ready to be deployed soon.
Closer to the release we will inform you of the specifics of this patch, but for now we wanted to give you a warning notice regarding how current saved games will work on the upcoming build.
Old saved games will be loadable, but please be aware that due to certain modifications in gravity and pollution settings, some planets will see their value modified.
That’s all we can reveal for the moment, expect more details in the following weeks.

Hybrid Wars is locked, loaded, and ready to rekindle your love for chaotic shooters of the ‘90s. Extreme Developers and WG Labs bring you fast and furious action, vibrant open worlds to explore, challenging missions to put your mercenary skills to the test, and a small army of mechs for you to command.
Hybrid Wars is available in 2 editions: The Standard Edition priced at $17.99, includes the full game, and the character, Alex Carter, a mercenary from a long lineage of distinguished warriors who’s determined to continue his family’s legacy.
The Deluxe Edition is priced at $19.99 and includes the full game. On top of veteran merc Alex Carter, newcomer Jason Wood is ready for action. Jason’s a cybernetically enhanced super-soldier/stunt driver with a quirky little helper droid that’s ready to help him out of any tight scrape. The Deluxe Edition lands with the original Hybrid Wars soundtrack, a rocking blend of epic orchestral guitar work and futuristic synth melodies. Fans also receive the digital art book, where you can explore the history of Jason Wood, and discover the highly detailed world of Hybrid Wars.
Two character DLCs are set to deploy for Hybrid Wars in the coming months, opening up new ways to tackle single-player mode and team up with your brothers-in-arms in multiplayer. The first DLC character is Yana “Tesla” Radovich, a self-taught genius and one of the best hackers out there. She’ll be backed up by the high-level tech-espionage specialist Yoko Takano. Both DLCs will be released in autumn 2016, priced at $4.99 each.
If you want a discount on those aforementioned DLC packs, then the Hybrid Wars Season Pass is for you, retailing at $6.99. You can even enhance the Standard Edition to the Deluxe Edition at any time with the Upgrade DLC. However, if you truly wanted to be suited and booted for merc life, you can grab the Season Pass and the Deluxe Edition through a single gaming bundle for $24.99.
In the future, you can expect additional multiplayer modes in several free post-launch updates. There’s also a bonus for all Hybrid Wars owners that link their Wargaming.net Account: an additional hero, Ivan, as well as 3 days of Premium Account for Wargaming’s “World of…” series of games.
Choose your combat vehicle and start your fight for the future now.
A hotfix is now available for download, if it hasn't already updated for you. We're continuing to work on fixes for other issues that you've reported, so please keep an eye on the known issues thread. We'll be updating that as more issues are discovered and reported, and will get fixes for them out to you as soon as possible.
