Join an elite unit of heroes to strike back against an army of killer machines

TOKYO, Japan – November 1, 2022 – A wave of killing machines is coming to wreak havoc as the Operation Cannon Spike expansion launches in TEPPEN today. Battle against the Reploid Army, a group of murderous machines hell-bent on driving humanity to extinction. To defeat the Reploids, the heroes from the Cannon Spike and Bionic Commando series join beloved characters from the Monster Hunter, Street Fighter, Mega Man X series, and more.

Watch the trailer here.

Heroes of Humanity Rise Up
With the Force Towers now awakened, machines have begun to be sent out to destroy humanity. As the Reploid Army begins its plan to wipe out the human race, the Anti-Machine Special Forces (AMSF) unit rises to stop the terror. With heroes such as AMSF Spencer from the Bionic Commando series and AMSF Cammy from Cannon Spike, the Unit must infiltrate the impenetrable Force Towers and the Reploid Army’s defenses, led by eight machine guardians spanning the Mega Man X series.

To survive against the killer machines sent to attack humanity, players can use the new ability, <Specialist>. Unit Cards with the <Specialist> ability will activate certain effects depending on the Tribe type that is placed in front.
