The first season for Steel Hunters has been revealed today, bringing with it a new horned Hunter called Taurus, along with new cosmetics and gameplay enhancements. The developers behind World of Tanks and World of Warships are brining various improvements to Steel Hunters with this first season, and it sounds like it’s going to be great.
Armed with his Bull Charge and Heavy Shotgun, Taurus gets into battle with unmatched ferocity. Designed for close combat, he has the strength and weaponry to go face-to-face with any foe. Pain means nothing to Taurus — for him, it’s all about the thrill of the fight. Players can unlock this raging bull through both the Pro and Premium Battle Passes available for Platinum, an in-game currency easily earned by completing combat missions.
Some of the other updates coming with the first season in Steel Hunters include:
- Streamlined HUD: The in-game HUD has been updated and simplified to improve readability and reduce on-screen clutter.
- Enhanced Unique Skill Tree Nodes: The credit cost for unique nodes has decreased by 50%, addressing concerns that they were previously too expensive. Credits spent on these nodes prior to this change will be fully refunded.
- Clearer Match Progression Indicators: To provide greater transparency regarding the impact of upgrades and level progression during matches, the visibility of these indicators has been significantly improved.
- Faster Ammo Recharge: Ammo recharge times have been sped up, especially when players are low on mags.
- Improved Melee Combat: Cooldowns and attack ranges for melee combat have been adjusted to make melee engagements feel less restrictive and more dynamic.
- Heartbreaker Rebalance: Large updates to her Railgun and Sonar Pulse are being rolled out to enhance team play, with key changes including more power in her scoped fire and additional support utility in Sonar Pulse.
