THE INNER SPHERE (April 2, 3049) – Longstanding stewards of the MechWarrior franchise, Piranha Games, today released the first gameplay footage from MechWarrior 5: Clans, an all-new, standalone tactical action game featuring approachable mech combat and an incredible story rich campaign depicting the humans behind the mech-based conflict, coming this year to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2000890/MechWarrior_5_Clans/). 

MechWarrior 5: Clans follows its 2019 sandbox-style companion, MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, as a completely new game in the MechWarrior universe, presenting an entirely different style of game design. Its linear-based design features classic Mech combat that has been streamlined for players on PC or console. Harness the power of a Mech of your choosing in single player or up to five-player cooperative play and jump into a lore-filled universe that challenges your skills as it unfolds a gripping and unforgettable story.

The series’ first Clan Invasion story in decades is contained in a tight campaign of narratively driven missions where all components are intricately designed, from dialogue to mission layouts to combat scenarios. MechWarrior 5: Clans’ traditionally designed campaign is entirely self contained, separate from MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries’ utilization of procedural elements to provide an experience that can be played for dozens of hours, and uniquely different from MechWarrior Online’s focus on competitive PvP multiplayer. The result delivers an engrossing story told through a varied series of stages with tense, climatic battles, standing as the first of its kind in narrative structure and cinematic progression in the MechWarrior series.
