"Stellar Mercenaries Unveils Jupiter Expansion for Vertical-Scrolling Shooter"

Stellar Mercenaries has just launched an exhilarating new upgrade that expands the battlefield to the largest planet in our solar system. Welcome to the Jupiter Expansion, which nearly doubles the game's content with a plethora of new worlds, enemies, and missions to explore.

If you're new to the game, Stellar Mercenaries is an engaging vertical-scrolling action arcade space shooter where you embark on procedurally generated missions, customize your ships and weapons, and strive to become the most feared mercenary across the solar system.

What’s New in the Jupiter Expansion of Stellar Mercenaries?

The expansion transforms Jupiter and its moons—Ganymede, Io, and Europa—into dynamic battlegrounds, each presenting unique challenges. Ganymede is a barren wasteland, Io is strewn with volcanic debris, and Europa is a frozen, treacherous landscape, while Jupiter itself is rife with turbulent storms.

Two new factions enter the fray: the Jovian Empire, a formidable military force aiming to dominate the region, and the Pirate Council, a chaotic coalition of outlaws ready to disrupt the order.

With 50 new missions, the Jupiter Expansion enriches the gameplay with varied objectives. Engage in hyperspace hunting to track elusive targets, take on piracy missions, escort critical assets, and defend trains in intense battles.

The update introduces six new ships to your fleet: the Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker. Arm yourself with an array of new weapons, including the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam.

New Hazards, Shields, and More

The Jupiter Expansion introduces Tier 4 shields and armor, enhancing your defensive capabilities. Navigate through new hazards such as asteroid fields, confront elite enemy squadrons, and beware of the formidable Pacifier. Some enemy mercenaries have been upgraded, with new classes like Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk adding to the challenge.

Additionally, this expansion enriches your auditory experience with 14 new music tracks and introduces a new side mission system, providing even more ways to engage with the game.
