Jupiter Expansion: Stellar Mercenaries' Largest Update Unveiled

Stellar Mercenaries has just launched its most expansive update to date with The Jupiter Expansion, effectively doubling the game's content with new worlds, factions, missions, ships, and equipment. This update brings in the Jovian Empire and the Pirate Council, two factions locked in a fierce battle for dominance around Jupiter and its moons.

The expansion introduces over 50 new missions spread across five different worlds, with a variety of objectives including escort operations, piracy, train defense, and hyperspace hunts. Players can now command six new ships, each with unique abilities and configurations: the Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker. These additions cater to diverse playstyles and tactical scenarios, enhancing fleet customization.

Combat dynamics have been significantly upgraded with the introduction of six new weapons: the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam. Players can also access new defensive upgrades such as Tier 4 shields and armors, alongside special abilities and mods like Drones, Point Defense, Critical Strike, and Missile Fire Rate, which offer new strategic depths.

Enemy encounters have become more challenging with the introduction of Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk-class mercenaries. These formidable foes adapt and evolve as you progress. Additionally, dynamic environmental hazards such as asteroid fields, elite enemy ambushes, and the menacing Pacifier add to the intensity of space combat.
