Here's What We Know

In Mecha Break, players take part in battles by controlling giant mechs. The game has three intense combat modes, including ground and air battles. The first major tournament for the game will take place in China in March this year, where teams will compete for the main prize.

The game is set in the aftermath of a global catastrophe, when the mysterious mineral Korith revives the Earth's energy, but at the same time spreads uncontrollably, threatening the last habitable places on the planet. In 30 years, the contaminated Markens Zones could swallow the entire world, pushing humanity to extinction.

Players take on the role of a third-generation BREAK Striker pilot, travelling through a dangerous world while being approached by the secretive organisation S.H.A.D.O.W., offering them a life-changing opportunity.

Where To Play

Upon full release, the game will also be available on Xbox Series and PlayStation 5.
