Mecha BREAK, the thrilling multiplayer mech game developed by Chinese studio Amazing Seasun, has recently wrapped up its open beta test on Steam, concluding on March 16. With an impressive peak of over 300,000 players during the open beta, the game has now secured its spot as the 5th most wishlisted title on Steam. This high level of engagement has provided the developers with invaluable player feedback, prompting them to consider significant changes to enhance the gaming experience.
One of the most notable considerations is making all Break Strikers (Mechs) available to players from the start of the game. Currently, players begin with access to just one Break Striker and must grind through multiple multiplayer matches to earn enough in-game currency to unlock the other 11. This process can be time-consuming, potentially deterring new players from fully engaging with the game's diverse range of mechs. In response to player feedback, Amazing Seasun is contemplating a shift to a model where all mechs are free at the outset, which could significantly improve player satisfaction and accessibility.
Beyond the availability of mechs, the developers are also evaluating adjustments to the usage of mech modules in the game's 3v3 and 6v6 competitive modes. These changes aim to refine the gameplay dynamics and ensure a more balanced and enjoyable experience for all players. However, the team at Amazing Seasun has emphasized that no final decisions have been made, as they believe a live service model is crucial for the game's long-term success and will be implemented at launch.
