MechWarrior 5: Clans has been announced, coming 2024
Piranha Games have announced that a new entry in the MechWarrior series will power up in 2024 for PC, PlayStation and Xbox. Unlike the 2019 entry, Clans will focus on the Smoke Jaguar clan in a narrative campaign. Check out the teaser trailer for the game below.
The campaign takes place across a variety of planets through stunning, meticulously designed biomes where immersive realism is baked into every detail. Hand crafted maps and missions deliver engaging combat, both complex and chaotic, demanding thoughtful, strategic play.
MechWarrior 5: Clans follows the elite five-mech squad, a “Star”, from the Smoke Jaguar Clan. The promising cast of rookie pilots complete their training on their home world of Huntress just ahead of the Clan Invasion, a critical turning point in the BattleTech lore. The game immerses players in both the personal and military conflicts of the Clan Invasion . As you progress through the campaign, you'll experience a deeply engaging narrative that unfolds with well-developed characters and moral dilemmas that keep you on the edge of your seat.
New progression and customization systems encourage pilots to alter Mech loadouts with expansive customization through an updated Mech lab, Hardpoint, and Omnipod system.
An exact release date or what specific consoles, were not revealed, but it is great to see the series still alive and well.
