Pilots! We continue to share the latest features that will appear on the game servers in the upcoming updates. Among them are new modes, events, and of course, ships!

The Allies and rivals event

Soon, the next battle pass will become available to all pilots. It will include an event with two stages, 40 levels each. The owners of a special pass will be able to obtain the rewards of all levels, but the first and every fifth level rewards will be available to everyone. All pilots who complete all the event levels will be able to get the new Ellydium guard frigate Drag'Thir, as well as the modules and weapons of this ship. And those who buy pass packs will get additional bundles of resources, seed-chips and ammunition. You will be able to find them in most of the battle pass levels. We will share more details about the contents of the levels with you during the start of the event.

New Ellydium ship Drag'Thir

At the end of April, all pilots will have access to the new Ellydium guard frigate Drag'Thir. Here is an excerpt from a leaked internal UMC report: [quote]Long before the Yith'Mor project was finalized, Ellydium had begun developing a guard frigate. As early as 4620 and 4621, there were small leaks of information about the corporation's desire to develop a ship with a new role. The main difficulty in creating the ship later named Drag'Thir was that it was almost impossible to use standard Ellydium crystal nodes. More complex elements were required. The needed parts were removed from living Crystallids only in 4624 for the first time. Information about the Ellydiums study of these samples was passed on to the UMC and The Frontier Voice news agency by a source that remains unknown. Rumor has it that Natasha Corts herself soon gave a good talking to the informant, making them realize the full extent of their mistakes. Conrad Dimeni was able to convince the board of directors to use this as part of a promotional campaign for the new frigate. Shortly before the first Drag'Thir frigates rolled off the slipway, Ellydium issued a promotional publication about the creation of the new ship. One of the brochures, later withdrawn, indicated that the Leviathan power transfer technology was used in the creation of Drag'Thir. Some of the ships pilots noticed a suspicious similarity between some of the frigates elements and Liu Virus infected ships, but the Ellydium explicitly denied these rumors. The ship has performed admirably in combat. We will soon be expanding the procurement of Drag'Thir for our mercenaries. Nevertheless, there is a proposal to investigate the reasons for the disappearance of The Frontier Voice journalist at Pilgrim-11 and the possible involvement of the Ellydium corporation. We need to find out if the unregistered capabilities previously observed in Waz'Got are present in this ship as well.[/quote]

Atlas: new player on the weapons market

You may have previously heard about this corporation in past news releases, now we are pleased to introduce you to the Atlas Weapon Factories. Atlas is a new corporation that recently entered the weapons market. The line of exclusive arms it presented has shown itself perfectly in battle, having different capabilities from the standard weapon modifications. There is some reason to believe that the corporation uses mostly basic civilian components to assemble the weapons, achieving high performance with a few high-tech parts. Some speculate about the corporations connection to a civilian company that existed on Earth at the time of the Invasion. Since the fate of Earth is not fully known at this point, there can be no evidence of such a connection. And most importantly: in the Allies and rivals update, you will be able to test several variants of weapons made by Atlas!

New adventure raid and plot development

At the end of March, all pilots will be invited to join a new adventure and stand up to defend the Frontier sectors from an unprecedented threat. Theres not much longer to wait! Stay tuned!
