Uploadvr reported that the new APX Rigs will be faster and more agile than the chassis type, but will have lower armor rating than the chassis type to avoid unfair advantage over certain Rigs type. Developers believe that the more agile APX Rigs will be a favorite for seasoned players once the "RIGS Mechanized Combat League" update arrives.
The Zurich arena will be the first European arena in the 'RIGS' global Rigs circuit and will offer a balance layout of open area for the Tempest class and tunnels for hunter class advantage. They didn't mention, however, how the APX rigs will fair in the new arena.
"RIGS Mechanized Combat League" players will be able to see and test out the Zurich arena before the game update at PlayStation Experience this year in California.
As for the Weekly Trial series, Guerilla Games will present "RIGS Mechanized Combat League" players with a series of trials that they can choose to compete in every week. If the player successfully completes the trial, they will be rewarded with in-game credits, fame, and exclusive customization items.
Lastly, "RIGS Mechanized Combat League" players will be able to buy customization items for their RIGS and victory celebrations for their pilots in the customization store. So far, in-game currency is used to purchase in the customization store: Developers have not announced the use of micro-transactions for the customization store yet.
