Hades Betrayal Announcement
on: March 16, 2018, 02:48:27 PM
Hades Betrayal Campaign Coming to Raiders of the Broken Planet on April 4th. The game’s third campaign comes accompanied by a totally overhauled progression system and new look and feel that changes the way Raiders of the Broken Planet is played!



Hades Betrayal, the third premium campaign for Raiders of the Broken Planet, will be launching on April 4th for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Just like the previous campaigns, Alien Myths and Wardog Fury, Hades Betrayal will be available to purchase as a stand-alone campaign for just €/$/£9.99.



Hades Betrayal includes four new, action-packed missions, all playable in either single-player, 4 player co-op or the intense 4 v 1 Antagonist mode, pitting the Raiders against the most powerful military organization in the galaxy: The Hades Division. Outnumbered and outgunned by General Krauser’s army, the Raiders’ only chance is to convince the mercenary outfit’s chief of security, Ayana Kwena, to betray the Hades Division and help defeat them from the inside, an impossible task for Harec and his allies.



“In Hades Betrayal we delve into the military might of the Hades Division, and their plan to establish supremacy over all the Broken Planet,” said Enric Álvarez, Game Director. “The four intense missions included highlight the bitter rivalry that exists between the Division and the other factions, who are fighting over control of the Aleph production - something the Raiders must exploit if they want to stand any chance of succeeding in their mission!” 



Hades Betrayal’s launch will be accompanied by a major overhaul to Raiders of the Broken Planet’s progression and reward system, along with a visual redesign and inclusion of many new game features. Players will now be able to rank up to unlock new rewards, and with the new Forge system they can customize weapons obtained during the missions.



The Antagonist role has also been redesigned, with them now receiving similar rewards to those obtained by the Raiders - Experience, Gold, Faction Points and Weapon Blueprints - based on the player’s performance during the game. 



“When Hades Betrayal arrives, Raiders of the Broken Planet will effectively be a different game to the one we launched half a year ago,” adds Álvarez. “The changes we are introducing to the progression and reward systems are a direct result of player feedback gathered over the last six months. The fans are truly passionate about the game and being in touch with them daily allowed us to dramatically and radically improve our offering.  Raiders of the Broken Planet is now a much better game because of this. We also hope this shows our unflinching commitment with Raiders. The game will continue to receive new and better content over time as we work with our dedicated player base”



Raiders of the Broken Planet is available now on Steam, the Xbox Store –Xbox One & Windows10- and the PlayStation Store. The free Eternal Soldier campaign contains two missions, seven characters and sets the stage for the incredible story to follow. The first two campaigns of the 2017 Season, Alien Myths and Wardog Fury, are available to purchase for €/$/£9.99 each, including the lethal sniper Shae and the bestial Loaht as exclusive characters. The third campaign, Hades Betrayal, will release on April 4th featuring the noble Ayana Kwena as an exclusive character.

Wow that looks great!!! Only one question though are those gun perks (specifically those four perks: hero killer, exterminator, lethal, treasure hunter) weapon specific, only applies to that characters weapon type or are they shared between all the characters weapon types ?

Looks like they're weapon specific with higher treasure Hunter to give reasons for less dps

Great! I actually don't mind the release date either. I've got other fun games to play in the meantime. Hey, Ayana is looking GREAT! Can't wait to utilize the new system to improve her gun. Keep up the great work.

Yeah, I'm pumped.  A little sad it's a mortar rifle, not going to lie.  It'll eat up Lycus's tho.  And everyone with that pull.  :D

So, I just went parsing... UPGRADING WEAPONS?  WHAT??  And Raider/Antag Affinities.  AND... OMGZORS.  Hah.  So the Rares probably will be more upgradeable?  Or Higher base stats?  I am excite.  Wewt more Min-Maxing.  Hah.

Means Light-Pulse and Bloody Mary may be usable in higher difficulty!

YASSS!!! It's so lovely isn't it? The new system is really going to focus players on specializing in a few characters, which I'm fine with.

Man, we're fighting giant Mechs now. And who is Shneider? LOL. April needs to hurry up and get here.

Shneider is the boss character I presume. Just given the color of his achievement icon.  He's the kid in Mikah's lore story (I presume.)

EDIT:
Boss character like Kuzzman.  We get to play him later. That's what I meant.

Question:
This update will reset all the cards?
It looks like it will. Or the level after the update will adjust depending on the level you already have, so you can keep your cards because you will have all the slots unlocked from the first day?

Its ok if the update resets everything, i just wanna know, so i dont login on the 4th and find a "surprise mother....er" all your rare cards are gone.

Also, the blueprints will still be there or i gonna have to farm again to unlock them??

As i said, its ok if the update resets everything, i just wanna know...

And thank you for this update, now i gonna be able to build the weapons :)

they already said in discord that already obtained weapons will not be lost. Unsure how locked cards will be effected at this time, but yeah posting that you're "OK" with losing things that some people have spent many hours grinding to shuffle and lock what they want isn't cool! Anyways they will explain everything, just wait :)
