METAL MAX Xeno Reborn news & patch notes

It's time for your final debrief hunters!

By now you should know what dangers are out there in Dystokio. The ferocious SoNS will stop at nothing until all of humanity is wiped out. Thankfully, you're not alone and have your vehicles to help you get by and launch a counterattack on the machines. We've taught you how to make the ultimate fighting machine, now it's time we teach you how to use it.

Taking the Initiative

You'll have plenty of options for how you approach a battle, and providing you have equipped your fleet accordingly, getting the drop on an enemy with a pre-emptive strike is usually the best way to start a fight. Some weapons, like long-barrel cannons, will have impressive range, and you can aim down the sights to fire your opening barrage. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/a4b17af1ce0807684de9d9500c38c0e365f8be18.jpg

Turn-based Tactics

In line with the other titles in the series, METAL MAX Xeno Reborn also features turn-based combat. An ATB gauge for each party member will gradually fill up in the bottom right UI, indicating when you'll next be able to act again. Each hunter can then choose between a range of options such as Attack, Skills, Item, Guard, or even cycle between the driver and vehicle's abilities. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/28198fec002f790431f8eb2764b0e2dde3a08c1d.jpg Each party member can freely enter and exit their vehicle during combat. When fighting in a vehicle you'll have access to that vehicle's full complement of weaponry and trait chips. When fighting on foot you will be much more vulnerable but will be able to use melee weapons and unique personal skills. Take Talis for example who has a mechanical left arm that can be used to deal some serious damage! Be careful when resorting to close combat as many SoNS are just as deadly up close. Some machines can even explode upon death so being up close and personal may not always be the best course of action.

Combat Spacing

Flanking both on foot or in a vehicle with your party members is an excellent way of disrupting an enemy's attack pattern. Most high-powered SoNS will try and hit you with attacks that have a wide area of effect. To avoid having your entire party defeated by a single shot, make sure that you pay attention to spacing!

Fully Automatic!

You'll also have the option to turn on Auto-Fire. This brilliant new mechanic allows for continuous fire whether you're on foot or in a vehicle. Auto-Fire will use the last command selected unless that weapon has run out of ammo or is destroyed. Using Auto-Fire means that hunters will have free range of movement to better position themselves, making flanking enemies even easier without disrupting the flow of combat. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/85b0083df7dfdd83d0a940c1cfc088d9af4381aa.gif

Optimizing Equipment

Another helpful tip is to ensure that your party is equipped with the right weaponry. Some SoNS will be weak to certain elements or types of damage. Pay attention to the hardware and equipment that you scavenge out in the wastes, and modify your loadouts to fit the fight. You can also craft new weapons back at Iron Base, so make sure to check back regularly to see what deadly armaments are available. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/2169662312e18bab27d04792cd920f33c83d54a6.jpg And that's all hunters, follow these tips and you'll have no trouble preserving humanity's future! METAL MAX Xeno Reborn launches on June 10th 2022. - Kadokawa Games & PQube Follow PQube on: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/d9b4d7479b2b96c89a0b267788b3d009f7147075.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/4fd1a51b4428deaadf01da442186b6adde86ec19.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/8a8f5cbf1b549dd92a2668ff5f008231f1dfbe70.png ⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40185640/3af44e246398185b1945f5d691f32dc99c69b7d4.png

Attention hunters!

As many of you will know from our debrief on the importance of using vehicles, any hunter hoping to survive the SoNS onslaught must be continuously looking to improve their ride. Relying on a vehicle's basic equipment may get a hunter from A to B, but standard issue won't cut it if you're hoping to take down the more ferocious SoNS out there. Each tank or transport you add to your garage can be modified extensively!

Under the Hood

All modifications and hardware can be installed back at Iron Base by PO-M and the rest of the survivors using the Terminal. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/c44e886f62408012b86ee15891a7c9b1e02c5cb7.jpg Individual pieces of equipment have weight and durability stats that contribute towards a vehicle's overall weight load and defensive capabilities. You can reinforce the chassis to make a vehicle sturdier, or reduce its weight to make it more manoeuvrable. The bulk of what determines a vehicle's load capacity is its engine. By far the most integral piece of the machine, the engine is also upgradable or can be swapped out for a more specialized model. Improving the stats of the engine will allow for greater improvements for the vehicle as a whole. For example, an upgraded engine will increase overall load capacity, allowing for heavier armaments and thus increasing overall firepower. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/443751ab7a4512fd8742fa77354f3eb7fe33fefa.png

Maximum Firepower

Every vehicle type will have a different configuration of weapon slots. Weapon mounts can be installed in each available slot, and you can freely swap out mounts whenever you're at Iron Base. Weapon mounts come in three types: Cannons - Conventional damage dealers out in the wastes. While they may be slow to reload and have limited ammunition, cannons deal heavy damage, with several having the chance to pass through several targets at once. Some cannons can also deal elemental damage such as Fire, Ice, or Shock. Machine guns - With their infinite ammunition and lighting fast reload times, machine guns are perfect for facing down large swarms of low level enemies, just don't expect them to pack much of a punch against larger foes. Special Equipment (S-E) - Extremely specialized weaponry that can be deployed with devastating effect! S-E weapons can come in the form of anti-tank missiles, sonic blasters, mortars, and more! Having one of these versatile slots on a vehicle can truly give you the extra edge in battle. TOP TIP: Remember to stock up on anti-air weaponry as well to avoid having death rained from above! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/3890743b4014990451d123b25178e2d132e25768.png

Hot Chips

Once you've fully customized your vehicle's weapons loadout, it's time to look at Trait Chips. These handy chips act as special abilities that can alter the behaviour of certain weapons. Some chips will allow a weapon to be fired twice in quick succession while others may allow for two separate weapons to be fired simultaneously. Experiment with different combinations of vehicles, weapons, trait chips and engines to create the ultimate fighting machine! - Kadokawa Games & PQube Follow PQube on: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/d9b4d7479b2b96c89a0b267788b3d009f7147075.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/4fd1a51b4428deaadf01da442186b6adde86ec19.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/8a8f5cbf1b549dd92a2668ff5f008231f1dfbe70.png ⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40185640/3af44e246398185b1945f5d691f32dc99c69b7d4.png

Welcome hunters,

The once-great Tokyo Bay area has been overrun by giant zoomorphic machines known as SoNS. The entire area has been reduced to a wasteland now commonly referred to as Dystokio. Created by the evil AI, NOA, the SoNS will stop at nothing until they have rid the world of humans. Some of these machines have gained legendary status due to their advanced weaponry and the devastation they've wrought on humanity. The most notorious of these SoNS have had a hefty bounty placed on their heads to entice brave (or foolhardy) hunters.

A Fearsome Reputation

As you progress through the wastes, the members of Iron Base will alert you to the presence of any WANTED SoNS. Slaying these beasts will not only result in a sizable monetary reward but also allow you to scavenge special crafting materials and items from their wrecks. You can check available bounties in the Wanted Info section of the data menu. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/e0b2a60185c5a9be9a6805d219221e3b96abb9cc.jpg

Reaping the Benefits

Turn the SoNS' devastating power against them with the parts left behind by slain bounties. These scraps could include rare upgrade materials, deadly weaponry, and occasionally an entirely new vehicle to add to your fleet! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/335bc0743bb4f22bf303cd9b064a816299120877.gif

Threat Level: High

There are over 30 of these monstrosities scattered around Dystokio waiting for the right hunter to come along and challenge them. However, don't be afraid if their overwhelming strength is too much for you, retreat is always a valid option when the stakes are high. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/00e20d45a2a390e5007b83369a88cb399df2d92a.gif Sometimes you'll find a WANTED SoNS too challenging with your current set-up and will need to adopt a craftier way of bypassing the fight. Once you've upgraded your arsenal enough you can use the handy DOG travel system to head back and deal with any previous bounties you've encountered. That's all for today, in our next post we'll be taking a look at how you can customize your vehicle weapon loadouts to create the ultimate fighting machine! Until then! - Kadokawa Games & PQube Follow PQube on: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/d9b4d7479b2b96c89a0b267788b3d009f7147075.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/4fd1a51b4428deaadf01da442186b6adde86ec19.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/8a8f5cbf1b549dd92a2668ff5f008231f1dfbe70.png ⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40185640/3af44e246398185b1945f5d691f32dc99c69b7d4.png

Time to suit up hunters!

The harsh wasteland of Dystokio is a dangerous place indeed. Only the bravest and strongest stand a chance of surviving. But humanity has had enough of simply surviving, it is time to take the fight to the deadly SoNS machines that roam what was once Tokyo Bay. To combat these towering zoomorphic creatures, hunters will need to utilise mechanical monsters of their own... Metal Max Xeno: Reborn is full of killer vehicles for the players to use against the SoNS. These vehicles are essential in travelling across the wasteland, and a range of powerful tanks and swift buggies are available. Let's take a look at some of the vehicles you'll be adding to your ever-expanding arsenal. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/0b7d4b029bfc0a57952def8fb9e29463b744f20d.png

Tools of Destruction

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/08a7c92dd92e425028b99761216408aaf963bb7a.jpg MK10 - The first vehicle you'll requisition is the ever reliable MK10, a jack of all trades tank perfect for any fledgling hunter. The MK10 can be fitted with several high powered armaments including anti-infantry machine guns and special artillery devices such as anti-air missiles. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/25cbd9796db060ef69dc819d10db2a8dae69a204.gif M-Buggy - In contrast to the great all-rounder MK10, the M-Buggy is a fast and nimble vehicle perfect for racing across the desert sands. M-Buggy is ideal for getting out of the range of potentially aggressive targets or just to get around quickly. The M-Buggy is a great choice if you're out scavenging, but might not last so long in a fight!

Growing Your Fleet

During your travels, you'll come across several other vehicles that are either in dire need of repair, gained as a quest reward or scavenged from the parts of an enemy SoNS. Each form of transport has a unique configuration of weapons, trait chips, and engines that make them particularly useful in certain combat roles. For example, the pacey M-Buggy is excellent for getting around quickly but can be easily overwhelmed when facing enemies head on. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/d1d28bf25d2ec8f9cb5befbc12a23add9e9f1bcd.png Before long you'll be able to expand your garage after recruiting new party members to your cause. Once more companions have joined your party you'll be able to set them up in a vehicle of their own. Hunters can utilise a maximum of three vehicles at a time, making them a match for even the strongest of foes. Make the most out of the extra firepower by positioning your vehicles in tactical positions to throw off the enemy and avoid any AOE attacks.

A Personal Touch

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/287c09ed3ac1d09dd651e1420c428a8748903f6e.gif Not only can hunters upgrade and modify each vehicle's weaponry, chassis, and weight, but also customise their vehicle's paint schemes. Create your own war colors from a wide range of options! Finally, humanity can start fighting back against the SoNS. Stay safe hunters! - Kadokawa Games & PQube Follow PQube on: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/d9b4d7479b2b96c89a0b267788b3d009f7147075.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/4fd1a51b4428deaadf01da442186b6adde86ec19.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/8a8f5cbf1b549dd92a2668ff5f008231f1dfbe70.png ⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40185640/3af44e246398185b1945f5d691f32dc99c69b7d4.png

Welcome hunters.

The lovable and undeniable star of Metal Dogs, Pochi, is back and fluffier than ever! As a special addition to Metal Max Xeno: Reborn, Pochi can join as a non-playable member of the party. In order to unlock Pochi, players will need to complete a specific quest early on, so keep an ear out on your travels for any signs of a pup in peril. The four-legged friend comes complete with a unique skill tree that can be upgraded as you level up your party. To give Pochi a boost in their training, players can feed them Dog Chow, a rare substance that can be discovered out in the wastes or purchased by some vendors. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/78403acb5653d5e13371d35a7e3e4819f5b99b52.png Despite not being able to directly control Pochi, the deadly dog can be equipped with a variety of weapons to assist your party in combat. From machine guns to small anti-tank cannons, Pochi can become a force to be reckoned with as you rid Dystokio of the SoNs menace. Be sure to keep Pochi healed up as even at the slightest sign of danger, the battle pup will jump into action and provide you with a much-needed distraction. This brave pooch will be the first to rush in to defend its fellow teammates and does an excellent job of driving away enemy fire from the player. Whether you're in a tank or on foot, Pochi will be there to assist. Unlike other party members, Pochi is a constant on-foot diversion tactic that does not require a vehicle to dish out hefty amounts of firepower. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/7bc94de275b601dd5e151801de1b851e29867413.gif Not only is Pochi useful in combat situations, but the pup is also a skilled scavenger and will regularly retrieve numerous resources during a battle. This could range from crafting materials to usable items. Listen out for Pochi barking to notify you when they have found something. Back at Iron Base, Pochi will spend their time lounging around various areas and can be interacted with in a number of ways. Players will be able to feed and pet Pochi while getting some much needed down time. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/4ebcaf2398dd7d767a54d4aa4bae003fea39eee6.gif Good luck out there hunters.

Dystokio can be a dangerous place for a lone survivor...

Thankfully, the residents of Iron Base are here to help. On your journey, you'll also come across several other survivors in the wastelands that are willing to take up the fight against the SoNS. Recruiting new allies is the only way to expand your forces and enables multiple vehicles to venture out at once instead of just relying on one lonesome tank. Some are in better condition than others and may need a helping hand to get back on their feet before getting behind the wheel of your growing brigade. Each of these characters is capable of joining you both on foot or in a vehicle and can be equipped with all sorts of gear and weaponry. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/f927b098ab8724a69a281f118a30b1beded02223.png

Time to meet your future recruits!

Talis - The first character players will encounter, Talis is the default playable character when no one else is in the party. He is a man of few words and determined to destroy the SoNS machines. Not much is known about his background other than that at some point he gained a mechanical arm that allows him to channel unique powers. Yokky - At first, Yokky may appear to be a useless drunk lounging about Iron Base with nothing to offer. However, help him clean up his act and he's a dab hand when it comes to vehicles and an excellent mechanic to boot. Toni - She shares Talis' drive in fighting the SoNS but is more welcoming and supportive than her comrade. Despite her often shy personality, she remains calm under pressure and has a level head even in the direst of situations. Dylan - Once the leader of a deadly outlaw gang, Dylan lost everything to the SoNS and vows revenge on the mech monsters. His brash and loud personality clashes a lot with the rest of the group but he more than makes up for this with his skill in combat. Maria - The last survivor of a heroic group of guardians that protected what little they could of the old world. Maria looked after a whole library of books that could be vital for the preservation of humanity's history and knowledge. Misaki - A calm and collected individual, Misaki is a researcher that had dedicated their studies to learn more about the Great Annihilation. Misaki's thirst for knowledge is only matched by their technical prowess. Ittica - Part of a rare species of mutants, Ittica has lived a harsh life. She had to hide her true form from the world until she eventually found out and was thrown in prison. It was only thanks to a devastating monster attack that Ittica was able to escape her captors and find her way to Iron Base. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/e37b878a6bd13e4726c184b940d7601a01f97101.jpg

Gear up against the SoNS

Equipment is scarce in Dystokio and not everyone can have the best gear. As your party grows you'll need to make strict decisions over who gets what and how well armed you want individuals to be. Take into consideration that you can only have a few members in your party at any one time, so choose carefully who you equip and with what. From weapons, armour pieces, and various accessories, all characters can be heavily customised with a range of buffs and specialities. The same goes for each party member's skill trees. Each party member has skill trees that can be levelled up to cater to the party's needs. However, characters will only gain experience when they are in your party, so try not to leave anyone behind too often! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/b24a3c643f251de961cb0a1854c1f5d4fd759e6e.jpg

Iron Base's finest

As well as the few survivors that will join you on your travels there are several key members of the team that prefer to stay behind at Iron Base. These characters operate the day-to-day running of the base and offer advice to any would-be hunters. Jingoro - The chief mechanic in charge of keeping the place up and running is Jingoro, a no-nonsense man with his mind on the job at all times. Jingoro is also a big fan of music and has asked that you keep an eye for any records to spice up Iron Base's jukebox. D'Annunzio - Next is D'Annunzio, the heart and soul of Iron Base. He often acts as the base's bartender, serving up refreshing beverages and telling tales of Tokyo Bay before the SoNS arrived. If you find his selection of drinks lacking you can always bring back what you find in the wastes. PO-M - And last but certainly not least is PO-M. An android created by someone seemingly with a love of poetry, she handles all of the repairs and supplies to aid you in your journey and ensure you're in top shape before heading out. Together, it'll be up to you to save humanity and stop the SoNS onslaught. Next time around we'll be taking a look at fan favourite, battle pup Pochi! - Kadokawa Games & PQube Follow PQube on: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/d9b4d7479b2b96c89a0b267788b3d009f7147075.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/4fd1a51b4428deaadf01da442186b6adde86ec19.png⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38458019/8a8f5cbf1b549dd92a2668ff5f008231f1dfbe70.png ⠀⠀⠀{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40185640/3af44e246398185b1945f5d691f32dc99c69b7d4.png

Welcome, hunters, to your new home away from home, Iron Base.

Standing tall as the last bastion of hope in the wastes, Iron Base has everything you might need to continue your journey through Dystokio. There are numerous pieces of equipment at your disposal on arrival that will become invaluable in the fight against the SoNS menace. You'll soon find yourself travelling back here regularly to stock up on supplies, rest, and much more. Not everyone is immediately welcomed, however, limited resources and desperate times means only those that prove themselves worthy will be allowed inside. Once accepted you'll be able to make use of everything Iron Base has to offer. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/bf0526fd9f7c9baf534cdaad25df8afbd872bb64.jpg

Iron Base Facilities

Terminal - Everything you need from weapons, armour, vehicle modifications, and more, the terminal has it covered. Acting as the base's main hub for all vehicular needs, the terminal has a wide range of purchasable upgrades for you and your ride. You can also sell any extra scrap found in the wastes. Use the terminal to organise your party, soup up your tank, and choose your starting point from previously discovered locations using the DOG System. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/c44e886f62408012b86ee15891a7c9b1e02c5cb7.jpg Bar - After a long day fighting SoNS, why not wind down at Iron Base's best (and only) bar? Listen to the stories of Dystokio from the local bartender and enjoy a sip from the bar's limited selection of drinks. If you don't see anything you like you can always bring back any bottles you find in the outskirts, the bartender is sure to know a tale or two about it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/05b5df3bf0ca9cbfc33d7136dbba150f141778f9.jpg Vending Machines - While the terminal has a vast selection of powerful weapons and equipment, nothing beats a quick pick-me-up from the vending machines. All sorts of helpful items can be found here from buffs to health kits. Be sure to stop by here every now again to ensure you and our party are stocked up on consumables for the arduous journey ahead. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/fcc63e08eb785f91947d32e146aa1eff605cbca3.jpg Dormitories - Rest is an important part of any hunter's regime. Iron Base offers a number of private quarters for its slowly growing team of survivors. Be warned, as resting for too long will allow the enemy SoNS time to regroup and repopulate cleared areas with more forces. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/193e45ee3782d7d6d2f71584c08e0b8519f4f199.jpg Stay tuned as in our next post we'll be delving deeper into the characters and companions that you'll meet at Iron Base and along your travels through Dystokio.

Welcome to Dystokio, Hunter.

It's been almost a century since the near total annihilation of mankind. The once prosperous Tokyo Bay has been reduced to an urban wasteland, earning the nickname Dystokio. The dwindling population do what they can to survive but humanity remains on the brink of extinction by towering death-dealing robots. SoNS, a deadly faction of zoomorphic machines now relentlessly hunt down the remnants of civilisation. Created by the supercomputer, NOA, SoNS were designed to wipe out the human race to avoid ecological disaster. If you hope to stand a chance out in the wastes, you'll need a sturdy vehicle of your own. The wastes are split into two distinct areas. There's the overground, home to some of the largest and most devastating SoNS imaginable, where the dunes stretch as far as the eye can see. And then there's the underground. The dark and dismal depths house some of the more grotesque mutations to have emerged since the Great Annihilation. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/d6cbd9ccc12191e84b44f276da7d5288c5035079.jpg

Hit the Road!

Vehicles will be your main form of transportation due to how vast and deadly Dystokio is. On the surface you'll have access to your entire arsenal of tanks and weapons, however, so will the enemy! Exploring the surface can be extremely rewarding, especially when making use of the handy metal detector. Spare parts and debris left behind from past tank battles lay strewn about the sand, ripe for the picking. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/b72951ed031d8b685390c758d63b335efebb27e8.gif

Going Underground

The underground has its benefits too but is not for the timid of heart as you won't be able to take your trusted tank down there with you. It's just you against them. However, anyone brave enough to delve deeper will find a whole host of treasures left behind. At first glance, it may seem that the underground is limited to only a few areas, but in reality, it is home to a whole labyrinth of pathways and unique monsters to face. Don't let your guard down when exploring as you'll be at your most vulnerable without access to your vehicle fleet. There may even be a few Wanted SoNS lurking down there. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/d1e45eaf0f61ab4890af5bfbed24684a0060f6de.gif

Mankind's Best Friend

There are tonnes of areas to explore as you search for survivors and upgrade your vehicles. Thankfully, Iron Base has you covered with the innovative DOG system. Instantly transport between previously discovered areas or head back to base to heal up and reload. The DOG system includes both surface and underground areas so look out for waypoints marked INTERIOR and EXTERIOR. When in doubt (or if you get lost), a swift retreat is always an option. After all, you are humanity's last hunter, and a lot is riding on your shoulders! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40606548/56482e146525ad434d2b29a2b9831dddf16c0230.jpg Prepare to gear up and roll out on June 10th, 2022.

Welcome hunters, to Dystokio.

We're excited to announce that METAL MAX Xeno Reborn will release on June 10th 2022! To celebrate we've prepared a brand new gameplay trailer showcasing the intense vehicular battles you'll be fighting against Dystokio's deadliest inhabitants. As you begin your journey and venture out into the wastes, you'll come across all sorts of vicious mechanical monstrosities hell-bent on ridding the world of humanity. These zoomorphic machines, known as SoNS, are equipped with some of the deadliest weaponry imaginable. A few of these beasts have become legendary for their destructive power and as a result, have had large bounties placed on their heads in the hopes that a hero will rise to defeat them.

That's where you come in.

Not only will defeating wanted mechs reward you with a handsome pay-out, but in many cases, you'll be able to salvage some of the technology for your own. From weapons and upgrades to outright converting entire vehicles. It's a high-risk high-reward gamble only for the bravest hunters. Stay tuned in the weeks leading up to release as we delve into the world of METAL MAX. Learn more about Dystokio and the survivors that populate humanity's last bastion of hope, Iron Base. Reclaim what's left of Tokyo Bay and save humanity on June 10th, 2022. - Kadokawa Games & PQube.
