Free Game Update Features

- These features update the base game and Hereos of the Inner Sphere and change the MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries experience.

Melee Combat - New melee combat with the ability to damage enemy 'Mechs with your ‘Mech fists. Direct your punches to different locations and Punch your enemy right...in...the...face. Great for close-quarters combat and an effective attack option when your 'Mech is running hot.
