After some delays, we have an official launch date for the new BattleTech Mercenaries Kickstarter- check out when you can score it!
While it’s a little disappointing to have this later than expected, it’s always good to have a solid launch date for a project like this! Also, the campaign isn’t really that far away now, so it’s not too terrible to wait for a little if it means the end product will be better and more organized.
It can also mean we won’t have as long of a wait after the project finishes. Let’s check out the details!
BattleTech Mercenaries Kickstarter Gets Official Launch Date!
Check out the update from them:
The much-anticipated BattleTech Mercenaries Kickstarter campaign has been officially scheduled for late March 2023.
As recently as last month, Catalyst Game Labs intended to launch the campaign in Q4 2022. However, the overwhelming recent success of BattleTech following the Clan Invasion Kickstarter necessitated the move.
“We simply can’t make new products quickly enough,” stated Loren Coleman, CGL’s founder, and owner. “We’ve created more than a half-dozen new BattleTech products in the past year, including the new Alpha Strike box set. Our miniature sculptors need more time to complete the designs required to launch the Mercenaries Kickstarter.”
The Mercenaries campaign will introduce over 50 new designs, including ’Mechs, armored and support vehicles, a VTOL, and a new aerospace fighter. Catalyst intends to have all of the new miniatures sculpts completed before launching the next campaign, in an effort to prevent long delays in production. Though the campaign date has shifted to next year, the majority of our work will be completed prior to its launch to limit delays in fulfillment.
We are excited as you to launch this Kickstarter and can’t wait to return to the battlefield with BattleTech supporters around the world.
