Systems are being overhauled, mechanics are being revamped, items are returning, and player feedback is being implemented. In case you missed any of it, here's a roundup of all the recent Breachway development news!
changedBreachway News RoundupResource bays have been overhauled. Previously, they all generated resources in similar ways. But after the rework, resource bays will play a major role in defining a run's playstyle. Now, most ships start without a resource bay and receive and random drop as the first equipment drop. Railguns have been similarly overhauled, with almost all railgun weapons being redesigned.

Now, 160 total subsystems are planned for the game launches. The subsystems released in this patch are just the start of this system, aimed at letting players specialize their builds.
