Piranha Games president, Russ Bullock, revealed at MechCon 2017 that MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries will release in December 2018. MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries will be the first standalone single-player MechWarrior title in development for PC in nearly 15 years, and will feature intense PvE ‘Mech combat in an immersive, career-based Mercenary campaign driven by player choice.
Featuring an advancing timeline starting in the year 3015, players will adopt the role of a green MechWarrior mercenary thrust into combat as the Third Succession War continues to fracture the Inner Sphere; the vast region of colonized space surrounding Earth. Victory, prestige, and profit will not only require skill on the battlefield, but in the maintenance and enhancement of your BattleMechs.
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries will be powered by the Unreal Engine 4, will support mods as well as 4-player co op.
In order to celebrate this announcement, Piranha Games has released a new teaser trailer for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries that you can watch below.
Enjoy!

The mechwarrior online game is such a mess that it is possible to play a level, the game will crash and when you log in you wont get the rewards for leveling up but someone else in your team will get them for you.
So dont have high hopes for this one.
I wonder who’s going to clean up all that mess.
