The Mercenary Collection is available now for $89.99 USD. Flashpoint, the first expansion for wonkily-explained, slow-burn stomp-o-strategy gem BattleTech, does exactly what I wanted it to: gives me a cast-iron reason to keep playing indefinitely.

The second bundle deal is the Battletech Mercenary Collection, which is a deluxe edition of the game which comes with the Deluxe Digital Edition of the base game and season pass plus a few other goodies. The Season Pass is currently retailing for a discounted price of $49.99 USD. Right now, two other expansions are planned for Battletech, the second planned DLC is the Urban Warfare expansion which will include some explosive metropolitan combat, while the third DLC is yet to be announced. The first is the Battletech Season Pass which will get you access to all the future Battletech DLC including Flashpoint. Flashpoint will release for the Steam, GOG, and Paradox Plaza versions of the game.Īlong with the regular base DLC pre-sale for Flashpoint, Paradox is offering two bundle deals today. Note: Unlike reviews, comments are considered temporary and may be deleted/purged without notice. If you don't know, Flashpoint is Battletech's first expansion and will launch on November 27th for an MSRP of $19.99 USD. However, whether we will see more expansions or whether HBS will go straight into a sequel is another matter.Paradox Interactive and Harebrained Schemes have opened up pre-orders for Battletech Flashpoint today. It was therefore never in doubt that BattleTech would continue, and with the release of the first Battletech expansion it’s certain there will be more.
This not only suggests the game did well but also that the studios could have had a good working relationship.
Paradox Interactive bought Harebrained Schemes back in June, shortly after shipping BattleTech with them. Flashpoints will also introduce what Harebrained Schemes is calling “Consecutive Deployments,” where players are forced to continue the fight and left unable to repair their Mechs between missions. These sections include choices to make, surprising events to deal with, conversations to have, and rewards to be gained. These are branching short stories comprised of special procedural ground mercenary missions with special scenes set from the crew of your spaceship. The biggest part of the new BattleTech expansion, however, are the Flashpoints that give the DLC its name. These include the popular Hatchetman with “armor-chopping power,” the nimble and versatile Crab, and the Cyclops with “multi-range firepower.” There’s a new tropical beach biome to add a bit of extra variety to locations, and a new multiplayer Encounter called “Target Acquisition,” where players have to capture and control three territories on a map to win. The most important part of the DLC is the three new Mech types joining the game from the tabletop universe (the same setting as MechWarrior). The Flashpoint BattleTech expansion will add a number of new features to the game, including new stories and new Mechs. The first Battletech expansion DLC will be called Flashpointand it has a release date of November 2018. Paradox Interactive has announced the first proper DLC expansion for BattleTech, the turn-based Mech strategy game from Shadowrun developer Harebrained Schemes set in the BattleTech tabletop universe.
