Homeworld 3’s Final Update and DLC are Now Available
Homeworld 3 has had quite the journey since launch, receiving backlash from fans for its gameplay and story-telling. Though it’s received extensive updates and fixes since launching this past May, development is ending. Update 1.3 and the remaining paid DLC are available, but additional features and content aren’t happening.
The update revamps the gameplay, overhauling armor and weapon classes with changes to directional damage bonus and weapon penetration. The tech tree has seen a balancing pass, and a new Reinforce function is available for all modes. War Games has been updated with 45 new Artifacts (including Ultimate Artifacts) and an Interstitials System, which features three new encounters.
As for the paid DLC, it includes the Somtaaw and Taiidan factions for War Games. The former offers two new fleets and units – the Acolyte and Storm Frigate – alongside ten new challenges and 32 Artifacts. The latter also includes two new fleets, 11 new units, 52 Artifacts, and ten challenges.
