On IGN’s Daily Fix show at directv, we learned that Mech Warrior is making a return and that gameplay will be FREE. You can visit the game’s website now to reserve your pilot name before the game’s release. Although there is not a set date for the release of the new, online game, and no PC system requirements have been posted as yet, there is plenty of enthusiasm about the return of this franchise. The new plot of the story takes place in the year 3015 on a planet called Deshler, near the end of the Third Succession War. It takes place before the events of the original MechWarrior, just before Hanse Davion assumes power. Adrian Khol, fourth son of the noble ruling family of Deshler, is the story’s protagonist.
Unfortunately, Adrian doesn’t take his training as a MechWarrior, or the duties it entails, seriously — not until the day his entire family is wiped out because of the war. Ironically, Adrian only survives his family’s massacre because he is stuck making up a test he missed during his MechWarrior training. After learning of the fate of his family, it changes his entire perspective and he begins to devote himself to his training, and his responsibilities as successor to his noble house.
The storyline is tight, and the game should be more than enough fun for everyone. Now, check out the latest gaming news from IGN Daily Fix:
