Shifting gears a bit if reading isn’t your thing, there’s also a new overview video that showcases both gameplay and between-mission-action that you can watch below. MechWarrior 5is getting back to the mission-focused gameplay loop, with the option to take riskier contracts (levels) with higher rewards.
