Into the Breach is getting a big free Advanced Edition expansion

Into the Breach is a kind of chess about large combat robots that have gained universal recognition since

release in 2018. The game is now coming to new platforms with Advanced Edition, a large free expansion.

The Advanced Edition adds:

  • Five new units and 15 new achievements for them.
  • Seven new bug enemies, three new psion enemies, and 10 new boss fights.
  • 12 new tasks and three new types of bonus tasks.
  • Four new pilots and 10 new random skills for them.
  • 39 new weapons and equipment.
  • Two new music tracks from Ben Prunty.
  • New difficulty level - “Dishonestmode”. There are many more situations here that require wasting network energy, sacrificing pilots, and failing missions. In return, energy boost bonuses have been doubled to make it easier to come back from the brink of loss.

The Advanced Edition also changed the balance:

  • Weapons require less energy so that players can instantly switch to new equipment they find and immediately try it out.
  • To compensate for the reduced energy requirements, purchases have become more expensive by one unit, and various items in stores appear only on the first two islands.
  • New mechanics:
    • Knockout - triggers a certain additional effect if a weapon with a knockout destroyed the enemy.
    • Fracture - the cell begins to fall apart. If you hit it, it will crumble and destroy everything that was on it.
    • Amplify - next attack increases damage by one
  • Mech squad prices have dropped to accommodate new teams.
  • Additives from the Advanced Edition can be disabled by rolling back the game to “vanilla” content.

Into the Breach: Advanced Edition is available on all platforms, including iOS and Android for Netflix subscribers. On phones, the interface has been redesigned specifically for touch screens.
