Direct answer

Power-ups in System Breakdown destroy enemy armor and charge your Fury ultimate. Official announcements mention artillery strikes and EMP explosions.

This System Breakdown power-ups page separates confirmed effects from unverified lists. It uses official Anarchy Creations Steam materials first, with clearly marked observed player feedback where relevant.

What Power-Ups Do

Official Steam materials say power-ups destroy Clankers' armor and charge Fury, the named ultimate ability. That makes power-ups part of both enemy-control and ultimate-charge planning.

Known Effects

The June 15, 2026 official announcement mentions power-ups that call upon artillery strike and EMP explosions.

Power-Ups & Builds

Power-ups connect to builds through armor breaking, Fury charging, and the broader weapon and upgrade combination system confirmed by the official FAQ. Specific optimized build paths are not yet verified.

Not Yet Verified

  • The full power-up list is not yet verified.
  • Power-up duration, cooldown, rarity, and numerical values are not yet verified.
  • One observed player review says "Some power ups are more fun than others", but that is feedback, not a confirmed ranking.
Evidence boundary

Artillery strike and EMP explosions are official effects. Fun-factor comments are observed feedback and do not establish mechanics.

MIXED
