Atlantica Online will introduce a new Housing System and Tactical Battle System (TBS) with its next update. The new TBS will offer two modes of combat for players to indulge in with Skirmishes and Tactical Battles.

Skirmish Dungeons will allow players to battle enemies with the help of up to two other players and all eight of their mercenaries. Players will be able to break formation and utilize the terrain to their advantage when battling enemies.

Tactical Battles only allow a player to take one or two trusted mercenaries and join the fight alongside dozens of other players. Each battle is comes in the form of a mission and players will need to work together to complete each objective.

The new Housing system will allow players to customize a living space and order their mercenaries to do work at the house such as craft or cook. Friends can also come over and help with farming, harvesting, lumberjacking and mining. Like most other MMOG housing, players can collect decorations and goods to further customize their homes.

Players that would like to get a look at the update before it launches can tune into Xfire this Friday, August 6th at 5:00pm for a live demonstration. In the meantime, enjoy the five new images of the new Tactical Battle System below.
