Hey everyone, quick update!
Unity recently announced a security vulnerability affecting all games made with versions 2017.1 and later. They’ve stressed there’s no evidence of it being exploited, but they issued fixes and asked all devs to patch their projects.
As soon as I learned about this, I took immediate action and applied Unity’s security update to the game.
While I was at it, I also slipped in some small fixes:
- Acid area damage no longer triggers during pause
- Mission 27: F35 VFX issue fixed
- Mission 18: Falling Plane VFX issue fixed
- Mission 12: Crashed Helicopter VFX issue fixed
- Weapon description text tweaks
PS: The Steam page for Mecha Knights 2 is in the works - it will be the project reveal, where I’ll share what the game is about, its main improvements, and the new features. The page will also include details, screenshots, and gifs. I’ll post dev updates there regularly once it’s live (just like I did with MKN1), and I’ll update you here as soon as the page goes up.

Hello Knights!
Patch 1.6 brings fixes and improvements - mainly item drop tier selection for all raids, more items displayed on the victory screen, and new nightmares in T3 raids. There are also 11 new parts including unique weapons like powerful plasma bombs.
Raid Map Pack - new DLC adds 5 new raids including an underground base, towns, and an oil field.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2995910
Full list of changes and additions is at the bottom of this post.
What's next?
MKN will now be in the maintenance phase, so no new major updates are planned. I will be monitoring feedback for major bug reports and will try to fix them in small updates. You can also expect a few new parts in occasional content drops. Thank you for every single feedback and bug report so far - you helped me make this game better.
The story doesn't end here.
MKN2 will be officially under development starting this coming Monday! Ethan and humanity's struggle will continue. I will be working hard to create a bigger and better sequel in every way possible. There are many new features I want to add such as melee weapons, loadout saving, and different leg types. The list is long. You can expect an update here as soon as the MKN2 store page is ready, hopefully by the end of the year.
If you would like to support my endeavor financially, please consider purchasing available DLCs; each purchase helps to increase my budget. Please feel free to let me know what you would like to see in the sequel. Many of the features in MKN came from community suggestions.
And thank you again, you give me the energy to keep working with determination!

Hello knights!
I'm finalizing my work on patch 1.6 and the Raid Map Pack DLC . There are a few new unique weapons and parts coming to the game in the free update.
GEM-40 Artemis
A unique Tier 3 lock-on missile launcher. Projectiles aim for their targets and, when a hit is ensured, fire a chemical laser which causes an instantaneous explosion on the target.
ALC-01 Havo
The first laser assault rifle, similar to ELC-01 Sunstorm and SR-01 Surya, causes instant explosions on the target, though with a much higher firing rate and precision.
A lot of you asked for a nuke, but NATO is still hesitant to use them. However, there are new experimental weapons coming that will come close to it:
NV-30 Lena
This is a Tier 3 plasma bomb launcher. Fires projectiles with an experimental explosive warhead that creates a huge plasma ball on impact, dealing damage over a large area for a few seconds. The explosion is strong enough to damage your mech so watch out.
LPM-1 Aurora
This is a Tier 2 cruise missile version with the same plasma warhead.
There will also be a new Tier 3 torso, MF-122 Eclipse, that will come in a few variants including one with four built-in coaxial gatlings.
Thank you for your ongoing feedback and issue reports. I try to keep track of them. Patch 1.6 will include new fixes and improvements. The item list on the victory screen will now show up to 250 picked-up items on a scrolled list. Also, as mentioned, you will be able to choose any drop tier on any raid map.
If you are interested in getting the upcoming DLC with 5 new raid maps or would like to support me in my endeavor to create a better and bigger sequel, please consider adding it to your wishlist here:

Hello!
Mecha Knights: Nightmare is getting a second DLC - the Raid Map Pack. This pack will contain five completely new raid maps, including farm fields, oil fields, small towns, and an underground base!
The DLC will be released along with a patch that includes improvements, fixes, and free new T3 parts.
You will now be able to choose item drop tiers in each raid map, with higher tier drops becoming available as you progress through the main campaign. There will also be new challenging threats in the later raid waves. My goal is to add more replayability, allowing you to hunt for any item tier on your favorite maps, while I will be working on a bigger and better sequel!
The DLC will be released in June or July and will be priced at $5 USD.

Hello Knights!
Here are some more new features coming this Friday with Operation Ascalon and Patch 1.5:
Introducing a new type of energy weapons - Laser cannons - they hit their target nearly instantly in a straight line, unlike kinetic weapons, and cause large explosions on impact. Check out the ELC-01LV_Sunstorm in action.
Tier 3 Torsos
I'm adding a variety of new torsos in Tier 3. These will feature special attributes such as built-in auto-repair systems, auxiliary boosters for increased boosting speed, coaxial guns, and an integrated Active Protection System that uses lasers to shoot down incoming large projectiles.
You'll be able to have one or two APS integrated in the torso to protect the front and back of your mech, with an additional option to mount two more on your shoulder equipment slots to protect your sides.
The campaign screen will now display a Reds Kill counter, showing the total number of reds you've eliminated. Now you'll know how many thousands of enemies you've obliterated.
Another new feature in the patch is the Loadout Screen, allowing you to get an overall view of your mech or share your loadout with friends.
And finally, for those who like to have more challenges during raids - NIGHTMARE waves will be a new feature. Past wave 15, there will be an increasing chance of a large number of powerful enemies attacking you, including mutated versions of existing bosses and mini-bosses. So, watch out!
Tomorrow, I'll post a summary of the new content and features that the DLC and patch will bring to you on Friday!

Hello Knights!
Operation Ascalon DLC along with patch 1.5 launches in 5 days!
More fire is coming to your Arsenal. Now you will be able to create walls of fire that will damage incoming enemies in an epic manner.
The fire damage system will be updated to deal periodic damage to targets within range, instead of single damage when the enemy moved on the fire, making it much more effective.
Kaenki GLT-2 New Tier 3 napalm grenade launcher.
Napalm Airstrike New Tier 2 active module - Napalm bombs will be deployed from the sky over a large area.
VLS-X4A Vulcan New vertical missile launcher armed with napalm warheads.
Another option is to utilize the Lorien LR-37GL2FL, an assault rifle with a mounted napalm grenade launcher. Additionally, many of you asked for this, so here it is - MLL-X01 the production variant of the Ragnarok laser will be added as a Tier 3 weapon!

Hello Mecha Knights!
The Operation Ascalon DLC is in its final production stage, with new content being polished during the ongoing closed beta tests.
Meanwhile, here are some new additions coming for free with Patch 1.5 to the base game:
Your arsenal will now include powerful active modules - Airstrikes.
B2 Thermobaric Bombs:
Drops heavy thermobaric bombs on a targeted area, causing devastating widespread effects on the enemy.
AC130 Support:
Calls a circling gunship that provides fire support with its powerful howitzer. Targets are acquired automatically.
F35 Airstrike:
Multiple jets perform a single flyover on your position, engaging nearby enemies.
Using airstrikes requires no laser-type enemies to be present on the battlefield. Each use will incur a deduction from the money you earned during the mission. Stay strategic and make the most of these powerful tools in your battles.
Continuing with the improvements to the base game mentioned in previous Dev-updates:
Backup Saves:
To enhance overall game data safety, save game files will be automatically backed up in a special folder.
Hit Damage Display System Update:
The system will provide more accurate data, including the sum of point and area-of-effect damage done by weapons in a given moment.
Missions and Raids Thumbnails:
Thumbnails will be added to missions and raids on the campaign screen for easier navigation.

Hello!
As the development of Operation Ascalon approaches its final stages, I wanted to let players know that Mecha Knights patch 1.5 will include content and new features that won't be limited exclusively to those who purchase the new DLC.
New additions to Active Modules will include Missile strikes - you will be able to call in a missile strike with various warheads to help you get out of difficult situations, including cluster munitions effective against larger groups of enemies. Even deadlier active modules will be revealed soon!
Another quality-of-life feature coming to Mecha Knights in patch 1.5 is auto-sell. Parts and weapons that you’ve previously acquired will be automatically sold on the victory screen, if you’ve already reached the maximum possible storable amount. For example, the third duplicate of a weapon or the fifth duplicate of an active module will be sold automatically.
Continuing on from the battlegroup upgrades mentioned in the previous update, which included vehicle damage and armor changes, further upgrades are coming which will include:
-predrops: Supplies will be dropped ahead of time before each mission to help you survive
-Field Repairs: Allied units will slowly regenerate health points.
-IFF upgrade: The health points of allied units will be visible on the HUD. This will be useful to combine with new active modules that will repair some of your allies’ hp during larger battles.
Weapon Tier 3 will bring powerful new additions to your arsenal.
-Theia Laser: A powerful long range beam cannon.
-Flak Guns: Rapid firing autocannons with proximity fuses, useful for hitting moving targets.
The game has also recently been updated to support Steam Cloud Saves too, so your saves will persist even if you uninstall or play on a different machine.

Hello Knights! Besides working on the new DLC content, I’ve also spent a lot of time improving the base game too, as something of a thank you for all the support I’ve received since releasing the game.
Now as you might have guessed, I love large scale battles. To make the battles even bigger I’ve optimized a lot of the code responsible for the AI, and in the patch that arrives alongside the DLC, I’m introducing a new game setting that I'm really excited about - Enemy Limit. Altering this will allow you to increase the number of Reds you encounter on the battlefield, with the maximum possible number depending on your hardware. This will impact the overall difficulty (and fun).
Another new feature that will be added to the base game will be Battlegroup Upgrades.
You’re going to be able to upgrade the tanks and infantry fighting vehicles that join you in battle.
Some of the weapons will be getting the reworked 3d models they deserve too. Here’s an example, the new model for the S90 Astra:
