The recent open beta of Mecha BREAK has wrapped up, leaving the developers at Chinese studio Amazing Seasun with a wealth of player feedback to consider. The standout suggestion? Making all mechs, or Break Strikers, free from the get-go. With an impressive peak of over 300,000 players during the beta and now ranking as the 5th most wishlisted game on Steam, it's clear that Mecha BREAK has captured the attention of the gaming community.
Mecha BREAK Developers Considering Making All Mechs Free
During the open beta, which concluded on March 16, players had access to only one Break Striker at the start. Unlocking the full roster of 12 mechs required grinding through numerous multiplayer matches to accumulate enough in-game currency. This process could be quite time-consuming, leading to suggestions for a change in how mechs are made available.
Amazing Seasun is now mulling over the idea of making all Break Strikers available from the start, which could significantly enhance the player experience by allowing immediate access to a variety of mechs. This change would also impact the use of mech modules in the competitive 3v3 and 6v6 modes. However, the developers are cautious and have not yet committed to this approach. They believe that a live service model is crucial for the game's launch and future success.
