戦争ロボット, the tactical PvP shooter from My.Games, will release its next major update on May 24th. When it appears, it will kick off The Shadow over Shore event, where players will battle banished EvoLife pilots and biomechanical nightmares in an abandoned city.

In keeping with the theme of this city, which happens to be located on a coast, a new Lovecraft-inspired mech is introduced with the ability to “corner shoot.” In case you’re wondering, he achieves this feat by raising his weapons and firing from behind cover.

さらに, new cannons are introduced that can fire vertical energy blades that can cut through space. As is the R’lyeh mothership. This can create a “Funnel of Doom” zone, draining fighters of their durability while preventing them from repairing or healing. Finally the Ultimate Rhino is back with new unbreakable shields.

The new content was revealed yesterday during the War Robots Live show series. The stream also included a special film highlighting the Martian Robotic Games (see below).
