Hollow Ground/Cybernetic Upgrades

Fitting your different characters with an optimal combination of Cybernetic Upgrades is at the heart of Hollow Ground's strategic side. Each character has his/her individual strengths and weaknesses. Scarse monetary resources as well as a limited number of upgrade slots makes it important to develop a clear upgrade path. Since item availability in the shop is random, each game session is somewhat different, so while a plan is necessary, you always have to be prepared to improvise.

There are mainly two upgrade strategies. One is to primarily enhance the already strong abilities in your characters to create super-mercenaries. The other is to try to make the characters more balanced by evening out the weaknesses. Which strategy works best might depend on your style of gaming and a mix of both might also work well. For more information on optimal upgrade paths you might want to check the Hollow Ground Forum.

There are fourteen cybernetic upgrades that are available in the shop.
