About the Game
Mechabellum is an infinitely replayable, turn-based tactical auto battler in which you gain victory by adapting your strategy and outhinking your opponents. Select, customize, and deploy a variety of powerful mechs in a futuristic battlefield face-off, and watch as they wreak epic mechanized havoc.


From the nimble Wasp to the massive, flame-wielding Vulcan, learn the strengths and weaknesses of dozens of unique units. Between matches, visit the unit workshop to refine your army, access new technologies, and develop advanced tactics to maximize your squad’s destructive power.

Utilize dozens of battle-ready mechs in a chaotic, tactical dance between battalions. Anticipate your opponent's moves, select the perfect combination of units, and strategically position your mechs on the battlefield to annihilate the enemy’s forces.

Hone your skills with community-created challenges and tutorials. Spectate live matches. Battle against bots and complete challenges in the game’s solo modes. Take control of replays of past battles to explore different strategies. Then face off against other human commanders in intense 1v1 duels, strategic 2v2 team battles, and chaotic four-player free-for-all competitions.

Watch shrapnel, incendiary bombs and huge lasers cut through the air as battles between massive armies of war machines unfold in front of your eyes, and watch the scale of destruction escalate with every round.

Balance Adjustments
Mustang
\[Culling Rounds] Cost 150 → 200
Developer's Note: The new Techs of Mustang, Hound, and Arclight have brought more tactics to the game, but data shows that they are currently slightly overpowered. The goal of this adjustment is to slightly nerf these three new Techs while ensuring they remain useful, and we hope this gives more opportunities for other units and Techs to be used.
Hound
\[Chamber Compression] ATK increases by 70% per second → 65%
Arclight
\ AOE damage 82 → 75
Scorpion
\[Acid Attack] Cost 300 → 250, Duration 15s → 18s
Developer's Note: Our goal for adjusting the Scorpion is to make it more effective against high-HP units, including Titans. This adjustment is the first step in a series of adjustments to Scorpion, and we will also add a new Tech to it in Season 8.[p align="start"]Void Eye
\[Electromagnetic Armor] EMP effect duration 4s → 3.5s
Farseer
\[Photon Emission] Startup time required 1.1s → 0.6s
Developer's Note: Adjusted Photon Emission will provide more stable resistance against EMP effects, while also ensuring Sandworm will be definitely affected by Photon Emission.[p align="start"]Overlord
\[Photon Emission] Startup time required 1.1s → 0.6s
Battlefield Powers
\[Photon Emission] Startup time required 1.8s → 0.6s
Other Improvements
Now players can preview the type of the next rift anomaly.

Balance Adjustments
Mountain
\[Gun-launched Missile] Rocket splash radius 25 → 15
\[Smoke Bomb] Cost 250 → 350, number of smoke bombs launched 10 → 8
Developer's note: Last year, we buffed some niche Techs of Mountain. Recently, as players explore different Mountain tactics more, the high cost-effectiveness of these niche Techs has become a problem. The goal of this adjustment is to make the cost-effectiveness of these Techs similar to that of other Techs.[p align="start"]Mustang
\[Culling Rounds] Cost 100 → 150
Arclight
\ Cost 200 → 250
\[Charged Shot] Cost 200 → 150

\[Incendiary Bomb] Cost 200 → 250
Developer's Note: Hound's \[Incendiary Bomb] is one of the most popular Techs in the game, and its win rate has also started to become somewhat too high in the past month.[p align="start"]Visual Optimization

Sabertooth
Attack Interval 3.4s → 3.2s
ATK 7858 → 7243 (-8%)
HP 15541 → 14886 (-4%)
Developer's Note: The adjusted Sabertooth will be a bit less effective against high-HP targets, while slightly more effective against medium-sized units.[p align="start"]Tarantula
\[Spider Mine] Explosion Damage 4500 → 1000, Explosion Radius 9m → 12m, HP 750 → 500, Price 300 → 200
Developer's Note: The adjusted \[Spider Mine] will provide the Tarantula with another option to clear swarms.[p align="start"]Mustang

Farseer
\[Scanning Radar] Price 300 → 200
Raiden
New Tech \[Energy Shield]: Obtain an Energy Shield that absorbs damage equal to the unit's HP and can block at least one instance of damage.

\[Assault Raiden] HP modifier +200% → +80%, Attack Range modifier -50 → -20
Developer's Note: After the addition of Raiden's new technology \[Energy Shield], the HP bonus of the original \[Assault Raiden] is likely too high.[p align="start"]Feedback & Bug Reports
