The free-to-play game service has become saturated. There are tons of games that are free-to-play, and the competition has skyrocketed; most games that were paid before have lost market share due to this and have gone free-to-play just to regain their player base. Games like Counter-Strike and PUBG are the prime examples of just how saturated the free-to-play space has become.
Now, the part that irritates or annoys people the most is their way of making their lost revenue back, because at the end of the day a business is there to make money and the way the free-to-play games make money is through offering in-game cosmetics, and they claim that these cosmetics are only for aesthetics, but we hear every now and again that some game is giving pay-to-win skins which give a huge advantage to their players who buy their skins.

Another way they make money is through a battlepass, in which they give you a chance to earn several skins by buying a battlepass and grinding the levels in it. Almost all of the game’s battlepasses work this way, apart from one game, which is Mecha Break’s, and its battlepass works entirely differently, and that’s what we are going to talk about in this blog.
How Does It Work?
So let’s talk about Mecha Break’s battlepass in depth.
The Mecha Break pass is called “Matrix’s Contract”, and the duration of the battlepass is around three months. It is going to cost you around 22 euros to purchase it until there’s a sale on it, at which point you could get it for much cheaper.
The battlepass, as I’ve said earlier, works entirely differently from your traditional ones, because upon purchasing the battlepass, the players will get three types of rewards:
| Reward | Description |
|---|---|
| 200% boost to all Mission Token rewards | Earn double mission tokens on all missions |
| Weekly claim of three Cargo Rocket Beacons | Free cargo rocket beacons every week |
| INFERNO, an Ultra-Heavy Attacker Striker | If already owned, receive 15k mission tokens instead |
Now let’s talk about what mission tokens even are. They are an in-game currency, primarily used to buy items from the Matrix Selections tab. You could buy whatever is in that store, whether it is cosmetics, weapon skins, your pilot’s outfit, or even strikers with the mission tokens.
How Is the Battlepass Different from Other Games?
The battlepass works differently because traditional battlepasses, like we are used to seeing, work on mission grinding bases. It is how the company wants you to make the habit of playing the game daily and get somewhat addicted to it by daily grinding the game for an hour or two. On the other hand, the amazing Seasun Studio has decided to do things the other way.
Upon purchasing the battlepass, you get everything you need: strikers right away, or compensation if you already own one, and your in-game currency to buy all of the things you want. At the end of the day, the studio is not trying to get you hooked to the game by doing anything shady or underhanded.
They give you the stuff right away and let you make the decision if the game is worth playing or not. So it’s less about the linear progression of the game and more about giving you full access to the things right away.
Conclusion
That’s about it for the blog. I have given you all of the context that you’ll need in order to decide whether to buy the battlepass or not. You now know the price, the rewards, how it works, and how long it is going to last. There’s nothing that I have left out in this blog, so go out and buy the battlepass if you like the game, but if you don’t like the game, then there’s no point in supporting it by buying the battlepass.
