Battle Stars gets its biggest update ever this week that adds deeper gameplay systems and mechanics. These include Super Weapons, brand new free legendary skins for each character, and Pro Controls. Along with this, each playable character in Battle Stars now has a revamped progression and upgrade system.
- Super Weapons: probably the most exciting feature for players, an entirely new arsenal of OP weapons, unique for each hero has been introduced with this major update. Players can find Super Weapons unlocked for all heroes in the game and ready to use. Super Weapons can be activated by dealing enough damage with their usual guns during matches. Super Weapons deal more damage to opponents and have further range and higher accuracy compared to primary weapons. Basically, everything a player needs to wipe out opponent squads within seconds. Not only are the Super Weapons really useful for players, they also look super cool.
- 40+ Upgrades for Each Hero: to make the entire player journey more exciting and rewarding, a robust upgrade and progression system has been brought into the game. With more than 40 upgrades available for each character, players can build their legend in a way that suits their playstyle. From damage, health, weapon range, skins and many more perks, players now have much more control in leveling up their in-game avatars.
- Pro Controls: after listening to our players, content creators and having multiple playtests, the earlier Auto Shooting with Tap button has now been replaced with Drag and Aim shooting, known as Pro Controls in the game. With this, players get higher weapon accuracy and more control in their battles allowing for deeper and more fine-tuned gameplay.
- Brand New Skin Tiers: Battle Stars players can now defeat their opponents with swag and style. A fresh new look has been added for all the heroes with 4 new skin tiers
- Default (Base Skin)
- Rare (Looks Cool)
- Epic (Looks Cooler)
- Legendary (Looks Coolest)
The game has even made all these skins FREE for players. All they need to do is unlock a hero by collecting requisite cards through gameplay reward crates or store crates, and keep upgrading the character in its progression path to unlock these new skins for matches. This follows Battle Stars’ previous update which added Cricket World Cup-inspired skins to some of its more popular characters.
