Mecha Break Open Beta Launches Today: How to Select the Best Striker

If you’ve been eagerly waiting for the next big thing in PvP mech shooters, "Mecha Break" is what you need, and the Open Beta Test kicks off today! Get ready to dive into three exciting game modes: a face-off in 3v3, an intense 6v6 battle, or immerse yourself in the expansive PvPvE extraction mode known as Mashmak.

Before you jump into these epic mech battles, you’ll have to select your mech, affectionately termed as "Striker." Each has its own set of distinctive weapons and abilities. With 13 different Strikers available in this Open Beta, choosing wisely could be the difference between victory and defeat. Below, you’ll find some tips tailored to each Striker and the types of players who might enjoy them.

Alysnes

Unveiling the classic all-rounder, Alysnes is your go-to Medium Attacker. A dynamic mix of potent ranged and melee options makes Alysnes ideal for players who like versatility. If you’re running low on health, there’s no need to panic—Alysnes possesses a unique Armor Purge feature that gives you a fighting chance.

Aquila

For those who have a knack for sharp shooting, Aquila is your Heavy Sniper, packing serious firepower. It’s ideally suited for those who love a defensive play style. Aquila stands out with their Airborne Kit, helping players maintain optimal positioning while using the Claw Drone to keep enemies at bay and ensure their shots count.

Falcon

For the high-flyers amongst you, Falcon embodies the essence of a skilled pilot, dancing through the skies as a Light Attacker. This Striker excels at striking foes swiftly, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. With various missile barrages, Falcon can decimate an area and swiftly move to the next target.

Hurricane

Here comes the storm! As an Ultra-Heavy Defender, Hurricane focuses its crystal armaments to lay waste over a wide area, denying enemies their chance to counterattack. If you relish eliminating opponents with calm confidence, Hurricane is your Striker.

Inferno

The name says it all for this Ultra-Heavy Attacker. Inferno is capable of launching devastating energy beams at single targets, causing massive damage. While some may see this Striker as a gentle giant, its opponents will tell a different tale.

Luminae

Meet Luminae, a versatile Light Support Striker with two modes: Support and Corruption. The former employs a Drone Launcher to heal allies gradually, while the latter switches gears to attack enemy health directly. It’s the perfect choice for those who want to balance between offense and defense.

Narukami

Narukami, the Light Sniper, excels in quick and decisive engagements. This Striker uses Optical Camo Drones and Decoy Drones to confuse the enemy and magnify damage, escaping with agility. It’s a match for players who enjoy stealth and precision.

Panther

For those who enjoy getting right into the thick of battle, Panther is your Medium Brawler. This Striker charges boldly towards enemies, wielding a giant lance that bypasses shields for focused damage—ideal for those who prefer a hands-on approach.

Pinaka

Pinaka, a Medium Support Striker, is a commander on the battlefield, deploying shields, blocking areas, and providing necessary support to teammates in distress. If directing the flow of battle appeals to you, Pinaka is a compelling choice.

Skyraider

With Skyraider, area control is a spectacle. This Medium Attacker boasts weapons perfect for managing crowds and denying spaces to enemies. Skyraider’s ability to switch forms between a biped and an aerial unit adds to its impressive versatility.

Stego

You’ll know Stego when you see it, sporting a front-facing shield and an arsenal of rockets. As an Ultra-Heavy Attacker, Stego thrives in chaos. Use your Complex Haze Diffuser to disrupt enemies and make a swift escape if things get too heated.

Tricera

Tricera, the Ultra-Heavy Defender, is armed with four massive gatling guns that can decimate enemy Strikers. Engaging turret mode equips Tricera with protective shields and Healing Drones, making it a veritable fortress on the battlefield.

Welkin

With an axe as mighty as its demeanor, the Heavy Brawler Welkin can tear through opponents while immobilizing them with a Stasis Shield. Perfect for those who prefer bringing heavy artillery to the fight.

The key to succeeding with Mecha Break’s Strikers lies in mixing things up. Take advantage of the Open Beta Test to jump into a well-equipped training mode and get a feel for each Striker to find your perfect fit!
