The Steel Advance Update is Live

On Tortuga, every meter of ground is taken and retaken. Pilots need machines that can hold the line and strike forward when the moment comes. The Steel Advance Update delivers exactly that—introducing a powerful new War Robot, aggressive strategies, and fresh ways to dominate the battlefield.

Heike War Robot

Meet Heike, a mobile Defender built for aggressive frontline pushes. Combining strong durability with forward momentum, it excels in tight, chaotic combat—breaking defenses and creating openings for teammates.

Heike performs best with coordinated allies ready to press the advantage.

Now available in Daily Deals and through Direct Offers.

Solidus Node Set

Following community feedback, the Unranked Queue has been replaced with the Solidus Node Set—a curated rotation of simulation maps built for fast, focused combat inside Freecon’s digital mirror of reality.

These environments aren’t just battlefields—they’re fragments of Solidus, a system once used for surveillance and control, now repurposed during the Tortuga Uprising into a proving ground for Pilots.

Now joining the rotation is a brand-new map, Solidus Node: Bastion. A dense virtual combat zone built from fractured defense systems. Elevated platforms, narrow routes, and layered paths create constant pressure, rewarding teams that can hold key positions and adapt quickly.

Also available:

• Solidus Node: Umbra

• Solidus Node: Depot

• Solidus Node: Foundry

Step into the simulation and fight where reality bends—but the stakes remain real.

Infinite Fuel Returns

By popular demand, Infinite Fuel is back.

Unlimited propulsion, faster rotations, and nonstop pressure—this mode pushes mobility and aggressive playstyles to the limit, turning every match into a high-speed fight for control.

Available for a limited time in a dedicated Unranked queue, Infinite Fuel is a temporary return. We’ll be closely monitoring its impact on matchmaking and gameplay, so it may be disabled again if needed—but we fully plan to revisit it in future rotations based on your feedback.

Jump in while it’s live and experience the battlefield at full throttle.

Advance the Line

From new machines to upgraded systems, the Steel Advance Update is all about momentum. Build stronger, push harder, and fight smarter—because on this battlefield, standing still isn’t an option.

Move forward, Pilots. The line won’t hold itself.
