Piranha Games have shown off the intro cinematic for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries.

The cinematic gives a brief primer of BattleTech history and sets up the Succession Wars that players will find themselves engaged in. You can find the cinematic above.

Here’s a rundown of the game:


The year is 3015. Humanity has colonized thousands of systems across a vast region of space splintered by centuries of conflict. The battlefields of the future are dominated by MechWarriors, elite pilots of hulking machines of war known as BattleMechs. It is a lucrative time to be a mercenary.

  • Seek The Truth – Follow a path of interstellar intrigue in a quest for glory and revenge as the leader of a mercenary company reborn in the flames of near destruction.
  • The Merc Life – Manage the intricacies of running an expanding mercenary company, from the maintenance and acquisition of BattleMechs to the hiring of fellow MechWarriors.
  • Fight Together – Fight alongside your friends with four-player PvE co-op support.

MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries will be launching on Windows PC via the Epic Games Store December 10th.
