Space Engineers goes to war in latest patch and DLC The Space Engineers are going to war! The developer behind this impressive sandbox space game is finally taking a stab at the way warfare is handled, with a new patch and mini-DLC pack that, between them, revamps infantry combat. Update 1.198 overhauls the mechanics around ground combat, with new weapons – including two new rocket launchers and three new pistols – and new gun mechanics that bring the infantry combat more in-line with what you’d see in other FPS games. There are also some free new blocks, as well as lots of quality of life and user experience improvements to further help facilitate competitive play.
