Stellar Mercenaries, the Vertical-Scrolling Space Shooter, Drops a New Jupiter Expansion

Prepare for liftoff! Stellar Mercenaries’ Jupiter Expansion has arrived, nearly doubling the game's content and bringing the fight to the gas giant itself. Explore new worlds, face tougher enemies, and tackle a massive array of missions in this action-packed vertical-scrolling space shooter.

If you haven't already blasted off into the Stellar Mercenaries universe, get ready for procedurally generated missions, customizable ships and weapons, and the chance to become the most feared mercenary in the solar system.

What's New in the Jupiter Expansion?

Jupiter and its moons—Ganymede, Io, and Europa—become your new battlegrounds. Each moon presents unique challenges: Ganymede's barren wasteland, Io's volcanic chaos, and Europa's treacherous frozen landscape. Meanwhile, navigate the perilous storms raging across Jupiter itself.

Two formidable new factions join the fray: the powerful Jovian Empire, seeking to control the region, and the chaotic Pirate Council, a dangerous alliance of outlaws.

Fifty brand-new missions await, featuring diverse objectives such as hyperspace hunting, piracy, escort missions, and even base defense.

Six incredible new ships—Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker—expand your arsenal. And to equip them, you'll find six powerful new weapons: the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam.

Finally, 14 new music tracks and a new side mission system round out this massive update. Prepare for an even more immersive and challenging Stellar Mercenaries experience! Download the game now on the Google Play Store!
