Attention Pilots:
Mecha BREAK will undergo maintenance on October 17 at 12:00 AM (UTC+8) for approximately 8 hours, though it may be extended. Please check our official announcements for updates. As thanks for your patience, all pilots will receive a Maintenance Supply Drop (1,000 Mission Tokens, not counted toward season totals). Log in within 14 days to claim it via in-game mail.
In this update, the colossal foe MORENA is now open for challenges! Additionally, Covert Operation Mode no longer has a team size requirement, offering more flexibility. We've adjusted Striker balance based on Season 1 feedback and resolved several key issues. Finally, the elite pilot Rui is now unlockable through STRIKER ARCHIVE: WELKIN CUSTOM.
Thank you for your continued support and feedback! Here are the full details of this update:

Ace Recruitment
The STRIKER ARCHIVE: WELKIN CUSTOM limited-time sale is now live! Unlock elite pilot Rui and the exclusive Striker Design: WELKIN CUSTOM.
Rui, a 19-year-old from the Yuliang region, grew up traveling with her mechanic father, gaining an extraordinary understanding of machinery. Often seen working with the maintenance crew, Rui stands out as a BREAK Striker pilot for her independence and resilience. Now, as she embarks on a new journey, she's ready to make her mark.
Piloting WELKIN, Rui brings her own flair with exclusive boarding, execution, and MVP animations. You may customize your elite pilots' accessories, insignia, and voice lines (unlocked through achievements).
Striker Design: WELKIN CUSTOM comes with exclusive weapon skins and combat effects. You can customize the paint job, patterns, insignias, and accents. Note that PGI-T02 WELKIN must be unlocked to use this design.
During the limited-time sale, the following Rui-themed accessories are also available for purchase:
Striker Machinist · Bear Ears (Headpiece)
Striker Machinist · AR Glasses (Eyewear)
Striker Machinist · Toolkit (Waist Accessory)
These accessories can be purchased individually with Corite or as a three-piece set at a 10% discount. While not exclusive to Rui, once equipped, they become bound to her and cannot be worn by other characters.

#Tactical Station#
General
Ranked Mode matchmaking has been adjusted: squads with a Tier gap greater than 3 between the highest- and lowest-ranked members are ineligible. (For example, if a squad includes a Bronze pilot, other members must be Platinum or lower.)
Operation VERGE
Ranked Mode matchmaking is now limited to teams of 1, 2, 3, or 6 members to ensure fair competition.
Challenge
Map Challenges now offer 2–4 additional Strikers as selectable options, allowing pilots to use more familiar Strikers.
Custom Room
The room host can now toggle Observer Mode on/off in Room Settings, with the following changes applied when enabled:
Eight spectator slots will open, allowing non-participating pilots to watch the match via free camera view or pilot perspective.
The room will only allow real pilots; bots cannot be added, and any configured bots will be automatically removed.
In addition to the existing room settings, the host can edit team names and initial scores, which auto-update after each match.
Hosts can enable Striker Ban Rules, customizing:
1. Ban order and number of bans.
2. Ban lists.
3. Time limits for banning and selecting Strikers.
Maps
The air-drop system above Longmen Launch Site has been fixed to prevent Strikers from redeploying far from the combat zone.
#Operation STORM: Mashmak#
General
The Colossal Striker MORENA is now available for challenge. Use Locator Beacon III to find its Restricted Zone entrance and form squads to face it in Mashmak Co-op (Extreme) or Covert Operation.

The result screen now shows equipped Mod losses when missions fail.
Stronghold Forces
Theia's Vanguard has redeployed its Exile-class frigates, with some docked for defense and others assigned as stronghold reinforcements.
HELLCAT can no longer perform stationary pivot-turn attacks due to lacking the required thrusters.
With upgraded targeting systems, HELLCAT's scatter attacks during high-speed movement are harder to evade.
