Steel Swarm: Apocalypse - Patch Notes 2025_7_2

July 10, 2025

Gameplay Adjustments

  • Mantis Kill Reward: Now granted to all living teammates, not just those nearby.
  • Minion Balance: Slight reduction in damage and HP to improve early game pacing.
  • Jungle Tweaks: Non-boss jungle units now deal slightly less damage.

New Feature: Command (Ping) System

A brand-new ping wheel system has been added for faster and more strategic in-game communication:

How It Works:
  • Hold Left Shift to open the Command Wheel. Move your mouse in a direction to select a command, then release Shift to send it.
  • Ping via minimap or ally portraits is also supported.
  • Right-click cancels the wheel.
  • Keyboard shortcut (1–6) support for fast access.
Anti-Spam Logic:
  • Sending 5 commands within 5 seconds will lock the system for 5 seconds to prevent spam.
Default Commands:
  1. Caution
  2. Setting Course
  3. Need Assistance
  4. Enemy Missing
  5. Engage
  6. Survey the Area
Contextual Side Commands:

Depending on the target (ally, jungle, structure), commands adapt contextually. For example:

  • Caution + ally = “X, Fall Back”
  • Engage + enemy structure = “Attack X”
  • Need Assistance + base = “Defend X”

Audio Updates

  • Adjusted engine sounds for Inso, FF machine gun, and all XBT units for better clarity and mix.
