Stellar Mercenaries has just unleashed its largest update to date with The Jupiter Expansion, nearly doubling the game's content with an array of new worlds, factions, missions, ships, and gear. This thrilling update introduces the Jovian Empire and the Pirate Council, two factions locked in a fierce battle for dominance around Jupiter and its moons.
Dive into over 50 new missions spread across five different worlds, where you'll tackle diverse objectives such as escort operations, piracy, train defense, and hyperspace hunts. With six new ships—the Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker—each offering unique abilities and configurations, you can tailor your fleet to your preferred playstyle, enhancing your strategic advantage in battle.
The expansion also brings six new weapons to the fray: the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam. Bolster your defenses with Tier 4 shields and armors, and explore new tactical possibilities with special abilities and mods like Drones, Point Defense, Critical Strike, and Missile Fire Rate.
Enemy encounters have become more challenging with the addition of Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk-class mercenaries, formidable foes that adapt and grow with you. The update also introduces dynamic environmental hazards, including asteroid fields, elite enemy ambushes, and the menacing Pacifier lurking in deep space.
For those seeking more variety, the new side mission system keeps the action fresh and unpredictable. Plus, immerse yourself in the sci-fi ambiance with 14 new music tracks. Managing your arsenal is now easier with the expanded Hangar Manager, which offers more inventory and loadout slots.
