Mecha Break is a free-to-play multiplayer shooter that offers a ton of content and customization for the various mechs you can unlock. Of course, some of that content is locked behind an in-game paywall, as is standard with the free-to-play model of video games. However, Mecha Break takes things a step further than a single universal currency, as there are three different currencies you can earn during your time as a mech pilot.
Below, you can see what the three currencies are, how to earn each one, and what you can spend your currency on in Mecha Break. If you’re just hopping into Mecha Break, make sure to also check out our full Striker tier list so you know which mechs are best to unlock first.
How to get more Corite in Mecha Break
The first currency we’ll talk about is Corite, which is the premier currency that you’ll always be chasing in Mecha Break. Corite is used for a majority of the microtransactions in the game, and, as you might expect, can be purchased using real-life money through the in-game store.
Corite can be purchased in the following amounts:
- 100 Corite – $0.99
- 515 Corite – $4.99
- 1,060 Corite – $9.99
- 2,180 Corite – $19.99
- 3,360 Corite – $29.99
- 5,405 Corite – $46.99
Aside from purchasing Corite with cold, hard cash, you can also earn some by joining the official Mecha Break Discord server. If you join and link your account in-game, which can be done right as you load into the main menu by selecting the “Link Discord” option in the pop-up window, you’ll be eligible to earn Corite through daily drops.
In the Discord server, navigate to the “giveaways” text channel and click on the “Daily Check In” box at the top of the channel. This rewards you with random loot that is transferred to your linked Mecha Break account. While Corite isn’t always a reward from the daily drops, it’s a possibility.
The daily drops yield a much higher success rate of earning Corite than selling items on the Matrix Marketplace. This is in the in-game marketplace for Mecha Break, allowing players to buy and sell items they’ve earned. If you have a desirable item but want Corite for it instead, you can place the item on the Matrix Marketplace for a certain amount of Corite. Then, another player can buy the item with Corite of their own, essentially transferring their Corite to your inventory.
This system heavily relies on players obtaining desirable loot and other players dishing out Corite for the item. You can sell any item you receive in Mecha Break, and each one has a minimum listing price of 180 Corite.
How to get more Matrix Credits in Mecha Break
Speaking of the Matrix Marketplace, it’s called that for a reason, and that reason is that you can earn a steady amount of Matrix Credits there. Matrix Credits is the most common currency you’ll see in Mecha Break, and it’s used for a variety of different things. Namely, you can purchase new mechs and other customization options with Matrix Credits.
On the Matrix Marketplace, you can immediately cash in an item you put up for sale for 900 Matrix Credits rather than waiting for another player to spend Corite on it. You can also exchange Corite for Matrix Credits if you want to go that route, but that’s going to be a foolish decision most of the time, given how rare Corite is.
In addition to the marketplace, Matrix Credits can be earned by doing just about any content in Mecha Break. Completing operations, events, and missions all reward you with Matrix Credits. You can also farm more Matrix Credits by purchasing the Matrix Contract Battle Pass, which offers a slew of the currency via Supply Crates. This costs $13, though.
How to get more Mission Tokens in Mecha Break
Finally, we arrive at Mission Tokens, which is the currency you’ll use the least in Mecha Break. However, that doesn’t mean you don’t want to have Mission Tokens, as they’re used to unlock some specific content.
Right off the bat in Mecha Break, you’ll have access to 500 Mission Tokens (through a sign-in bonus). This isn’t nearly enough to purchase everything behind the currency, though. Mission Tokens can be interacted with in the top-right of the main menu, and once you view its menu, you’ll see everything you can unlock with the tokens. This includes a few of the Strikers in Mecha Break, such as Inferno and Serenith, and each one costs 15,000 tokens. Along with them, other beacons and access cards require Mission Tokens as well.
You can earn Mission Tokens through playing all three game modes in Mecha Break, completing missions in each game mode, and by claiming daily sign-in bonuses. Also, purchasing the Matrix Contract Battle Pass offers Mission Tokens as well, but as we said before, it costs $13.
Mission Tokens are considered the grindiest of all the currencies in Mecha Break, and you need a ton of them if you want to unlock every Striker and item in the game.
