'M.A.V.' Launches New Beta Phase - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on May 2, 2016 @ 12:07 p.m. PDT

M.A.V. is a 3rd person Mech action game focused on teamwork and fine tuning your M.A.V. to perfectly work with your own play style.

You play as a MAV pilot, fighting against an oppressive government trying to turn your home into a forced labor camp. You will be able to build your MAV, piece by piece, into the perfect weapon for your fighting style. You will need to use teamwork and a steady aim to fight against other MAV's to protect your home and take back the areas conquered by others.

Take part in a persistent war across the surface of Europa, fighting against other rebel factions and the Earth Defense Force. Join with your friends to create your own faction, capture territories through hard fought battles, spend resources to get new parts for your MAV and upgrade the defenses of your territories, and possibly deploy a game changing Mega Weapon.


The sound of stompy mechs in the morning is what gets us out of bed this May 2nd, for the spectacular release of the new MAV Beta! The long anticipated update by one-man developer, Bombdog Studios, includes many updates to the game. A sound teaser showed off the beauty of a brand new audio system, as well as teasing newly redone models, textures, and explosions! With over 350 individual parts to build your mech of destruction, it's going to be the perfect experience for all mech heads.

The Beta releases on May 2nd on both Steam Early Access and the developers website. It is a free update for all owners of the current game and listed at $19.99 for new players. Big changes in the Beta include newly redone art assets, a new audio system, new visuals for explosions, destruction, and bullet impacts, a new UI, some performance and multiplayer optimizations, and much more.

Key Features

  • You can choose from thousands of parts across over 30 different categories to design and build your MAV, from the ground up, or pick from community shared designs.
  • Fight in many different game modes, with the freeform Arena and Siege mode, to the single player story, or the persistent campaign mode.
  • Experience intense mech combat, with realistic projectiles, physics based weapon recoil, individual part damage, and fantastic environments.
  • In the campaign mode, build up your captured territories with additional defenses, place turrets to help fight off invaders, and hire and recruit AI rebels to fight alongside you. Changes you make on a territory level effect the battlefields and can change the balance of power.
  • Full customization of your MAV, with millions of combinations possible, different paint jobs and camo patterns, along with decals, you will always be able to express yourself and be unique on the battlefield.
