Amsterdam, Sept. 20, 2024 - MY.GAMES has just released a new season for their tactical shooter Warface: Clutch. The Storm Peak season introduces a new PvP map Reactor for Team Deathmatch, and sees two special PvE missions, The HQ and Mars, return to the PC version of the game at various difficulty levels. New Seasons for both PvE and competitive PvP play also kick off alongside a new Battle Pass.
Storm Peak also comes with major updates to game mechanics and balance, as well as the traditional refresh of the battle pass and seasonal activities. By progressing through the Battle Pass and completing special contracts, players will unlock access to the Energy and High Voltage weapon series. Additionally, during the season 3 new agents will be introduced, the first of which is Thomas Stahnbaur a.k.a "Falcon". A new semi-automatic bullpup shotgun, the Panzer Arms BP-12, is also being added.
A key feature of this season is the updated balance of armor, weapons and devices. Players will unlock the new Sandstorm armor immediately after logging in, which will also be the new default starter armor, and the armor is specialized in offering additional protection against explosives. Armor has been redesigned across the board to simplify the amount of bonuses into a more cohesive singular damage resistance offering players more freedom and also making Medic and Engineer players more essential than ever since armor will no longer offer regeneration bonuses. Additionally, several weapons including Beretta ARX160, AK-12, MAG-7, Kalashnikov MP-155 Ultima, Honey Badger, CheyTac M200, Chiappa Triple Threat, and Tavor CTAR-21 have been significantly rebalanced to make them more competitive and better fit with their respective categories, while the base stats of most weapons have been adjusted to match the changes to armor.
Devices have also been rebalanced with the goal of making more of them effective tactical gear. On the whole they are now more effective without mods being installed but there’s also been specific tuning to several devices:
Explosives, including grenades and claymores deal less damage against the new Sandstorm set and dual grenade damage has been reduced in general
Gas grenades have been adjusted to reward tactical use rather than dominating through area control.
The adrenaline shot and repair kit have been adjusted to match changes to the armor system and the readjusted weapons.
Sticky grenades and Molotov cocktails have been improved to match the overhauled weapons
Melee weapons have also been significantly reworked by standardizing their effectiveness. This means that all melee weapons will now guarantee a one-kill hit when used from behind an opponent, ensuring that everyone can bring their favorite knife to a gunfight. There’s also been a significant revamp of the melee weapon animations which includes weapon specific animations to add extra flair and spectacle.
In the ranked shop, unique camouflage from the new Cybernetic series and the collectible appearance of the Crossfit squad engineer are now available alongside the new Battle Pass.
Warface: Clutch is available via MGlauncher, Steam, Epic Games Store and on PlayStation 4 | 5, Xbox Series S|X and Switch. For more news players can follow the games’ social media channels.
