🤝 Time to Unite 🤝 The Swarm Together Update is Now Available
Greetings fellow ants,
The time to unite has finally come!
The Swarm Together Update is Now Available in Empire of the Ants
This free content update brings a lot of new things to the game:
🎮 New Game Modes
Co-Op Mode
Available in Mutiplayer hub
Play with a friend against 2 AIs
Each player starts with 2 nests, and cooperation will be key to defeat the enemy team
Horde Mode
Available for 1 player in Skirmish hub and 2 players in Multiplayer hub
Defend your nests against unending waves of enemies
Waves grow stronger and stronger
Waves are always composed differently
Story Challenge Mode
Available in Skirmish hub
Replay 6 missions from the main campaign in a more challenging format
Some actions, from the attacks to the movements, will cost points
Some other, such as defeating an enemy nest, will grant you additional points
Finish the mission with the highest score possible
🐜 New In-Game Content
New Map: The Riverside
Designed specifically for large scale battles, this strip of land is the ideal place for 2 v 2 combats
New Support Unit: The Paussus
A stealthy unit which cannot be detected by units without a certain range, nor enemy nests
Steals the economic and information upgrades of enemy nests
Weak during fights, using the Paussus will require some strategy to be used at its full potential
New Power: Pheromone Storm
Create a huge smoke-filled area where information is not displayed
Upgrading it will extend its duration
Some upgrades and power can counter its effect
🛠️ Misc. Changes
Loadout Setup
Dedicated loadouts for the Skirmish and Multiplayer hubs
Set up to 5 loadouts which include units and powers
When the map is set, choose which loadout you want to play with
New AI Difficulties
”Imba”, “Unfair” and “Darwin”
Balancing
Information upgrades now cost less resources to build
Aphids now grant a movement boost while moving
Snails move 30% faster
Dor Beetles now receive 5-10% less damage across the board
Hornets now receive 10-15% more damage from gunners
Flying units, such as the Rhino Beetle, can now be sent directly to a nest
We hope you’ll have as much fun playing with these new additions as we enjoyed crafting them!
For the glory of the colony 🌿🐜
