War Robots has launched its 12.5 update, introducing an alien invasion theme titled Halloween Interlopers. Inspired by H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds, the event brings extraterrestrial combat elements into the competitive multiplayer shooter.
The seasonal refresh adds the Nekton, a tripedal robot equipped with an extended Absorber shield to withstand enemy fire. Alongside the three-legged machine, players can deploy the Object, a tactical support drone designed specifically to assist units that fly or use Absorber shields.
In addition to the new units, the in-universe Evolife Broadcasting Systems event includes thematic map adjustments, offering fresh battle scenarios for players competing during the seasonal period.
