News & Announcements
Random Battle 2 vs 2 Mode AddedWe are proud to announce the addition of 2 vs 2 mode to random battles. Now when pressing random you select which type of battle you are willing to participate - 1x1, 2x2, or both. When selecting 2x2 it takes longer to wait because 2x2 is harder to assemble. If any of the players selected "Anonymous", whole battle would be anonymous. Also 2x2 mode does not provide Enkord Cash for waiting, because it is easier to abuse. Playing with friends You can make a team with your friends of clan mates. If someone from your friends or clan mates have activated random 2x2 mode together with you, special "2x2" icon will be displayed on top of his rank. When battle starts, you will be placed in the same team with this player. If "2x2" is grayed out, it means while that player has activated "2x2", you will NOT be placed together, because of the level difference. If you and your friend start in the same team and the battle is anonymous, you still will be able to see each other's names and talk to each other. Read More...

Map Size Preference Added to Random BattleAfter this update now you can choose preferred map size when playing random battle. If both players who pressed "random" chose large map (L) they will play on big map. If one choses small and another choses large - they will play on medium and so on. Hopefully now snipers and other long range builds will be more viable in 1v1 battles.

Network Improvements - Better ReconnectsThis update releases completely redesigned network code. This new code allows for a much faster and smoother reconnects "behind the scenes". Reconnects now happen inivisbly for player - no need to enter the game again after disconnect. This should save you precious time when disconnects happen on your turn. This is especially important when playing phone version on unstable mobile connections. Let us know if it became better or worse or if there are any connection-related bugs.

New ServerWe have moved to a new more powerful server which is around 20x faster than the old one. It is located in the Germany now (old one was in the US), therefore connection speed might be slightly different, depending on where in the world you are, however on average this should be faster for everyone. We have also ported our server software from Windows to Linux which makes our server fees smaller and will future-proof our technology. Everything considered what happened today will allow this game run for another decade or so.

In today's update we have also redesigned interface to remove unnecesary and confusing (to early players) elements until later:

Anonymous BattlesIn this update we have added a new option for Random Battles - fighting anonymously! Before you opt in for random battles, you can enable anonymous mode - in this mode when you will find opponent to fight he/she will not be able to know who you are - your names will be hidden and your outfit will be randomized. Chat is disabled in anonymous games to prevent anonymous insults. Also games info is anonymized in the list of games.

New Forum ReleasedToday we have moved forum to a new platform. Now there should be less problems when logging in as it uses our universal Enkord Account system and the login is the same as login to Enkord webiste to make payments or play web version of the game. There is a "Name & Portrait" section in Settings now where you can select which team and name you want to display on forums as main. Any player can view other player's profile on forum now and see their list of teams. Forum update may look like something insignificant, but in fact these new forums are a result of a major internal technical overhaul I have been working on since Winter. These changes will allow us to continue GUNROX support in the future, migrate to new servers, and most importantly - add new features like bots. Without this update all of that were not possible.

War in Ukraine, GUNROX Birthday, and UpdatesAs you have probably knew, we (the team behind GUNROX) is from Ukraine, and thus it is needed to clarify the situation we are in. Today's Update This update is a step towards bots and other substantial updates in GUNROX. In order to work on those, a lot of refactoring needs to be done internally and this is what we did. So what's new? Read More...

Location Redesign - Play Mega Anywhere Now!Donations has been doing nice lately which allowed us to fund another update that should make the game more fun for everyone. Thanks for everyone who donated during the last month, you were funding this update by doing so. In today's update we have changed the way how location size is working. Instead of all maps having fixed size no matter what, from now on any map can have any size, depending of how many players are in battle. For 2 players (1v1) the size would be the same as it was for Lost Beach. For 10 players mega (5v5) the size would be the same as Junkyard ON ANY LOCATION. Maximum number of players on all locations except beginner's quarter have been increased to 10. Read More...

First Payment Package AddedIn order to motivate donations from players who have never donated we have added "First Payment Package" which holds rewards worth 20000 Enkord Cash. You will receive it if you donate at least for 5000 Enkord Cash and did no donations previously with your game account. Rewards there are mostly random non-transferable stuff like storage increase, double exp, resets, etc. Therefore there is no point in creating new dummy accounts to get that package. It makes sense to get it for the account you actually use actively.

Easier Enkord Cash Transfer and Artifact PurchaseWe have started to improve payment system and all the stuff related to paymets. In this update we have changed the way people buy artifacts in the market.From now on when you buy artifact, you no longer need to make another payment. You can use previously charged money to buy the artifacts. There is two types of Enkord Cash now - charged and non-charged. Charged Enkord Cash is displayed with yellow sign and is strict equivalent of paid money. Enkord Cash earned in the game or received as volume bonus are white and have the same functionality as before. Read More...

It should work better now on old laptops and phones.Next major thing we are working on is new payment system which should allow to trade artifacts without charging money, various volume bonuses, incremental discounts for repeating customers and so on.

Anti-Toxic UpdateIn order for GUNROX to be worth advertising and driving new players in we have to do something about toxicity level in the community. Many new players won't stay when they will see insults right from the start. We have tried different solutions - appointing moderators, giving silences, but some trolls and toxic players simply won't stop. Therefore we have to take more radical measures which proved to be very helpful in our other online game.New Common Chat In this update common chat from all locations joined into one, but writing to it is limited and requires special Megaphone ability. On this update all players above level 1 receive 5 of these abilities for free. Also each level-up awards 5 of such items as well. Chance to get megaphone has been added to recycling. Finally, megaphones are sold on cash shop for 1000E per 10 items, but we don't expect people to buy it. It was intentionally added to the shop at such a high price so players would value those items and use them wisely (to call for mega, etc.). Hopefully players would flood less and play more now.

Ammunition Boxes - Better Rewards from Random Battles!We have been thinking for a long time how to give better rewards for battles, but prevent farming while solving the equipment problem. Here is what we have come up with: Ammunition Boxes!Since current update you will get ammunition boxes instead Enkord Cash, but the value of items would be 4x of Enkord Cash you received before the update. Roughly half of that items are guaranteed to be usable by your units. Another half of items are guaranteed to be usable at your level, so you can trade that with players of your level or recycle it (no level 1 junk if you are level 50). Boxes cannot be transfered so it not as lucrative to farm them to give to someone else. Read More...
