Dodge Roll Games are lastly placing their twitchy roguelike shooter Enter The Gungeon to mattress, with one massive remaining replace, A Farewell To Arms, out now. It seems to be to be a major free growth, including one other set of weapons and devices, two new playable characters (one purely random, one seemingly story-focused), a brand new degree with its personal boss and a brand new technique to play: Rainbow Mode. They’ve additionally continued the rebalancing work that began with Advanced Gungeons & Draguns, aiming to make the participant really feel “more powerful more often”. Below, a spoiler-free(?) trailer.
Few weapons have been revealed, however there’s point out of The Fat Line, a gun that fires bullets backwards by way of time and partitions. The first new gungeoneer, The Paradox, is a results of your fixed monkeying round with the space-time continuum. They haven’t any story, and begin every run with one random starter, gun and merchandise. The second character – The Gunslinger – does have a previous to kill, and bears a surely-coincidental resemblance to the Lich. The new hidden degree seems to be like a pleasure, too – the RNG Department is outwardly full of “weird and horrible enemy hybrids”, and a boss.
Rainbow Mode is a brand new technique to play, given to you by new NPC, Bowler. In this mode, each ground incorporates a rainbow chest, supplying you with a bunch of things to choose from, however you solely get one and that’s it for the remainder of the ground, loot-wise. It’s impressed by self-imposed problem runs by the neighborhood and confusingly shares a reputation with a popular mod. Per the patch notes, they’ve smoothed out among the game’s rougher edges, improved the UI a bit and hidden merchandise options are actually extra readily defined. They’ve additionally barely elevated the boss DPS cap, so a strong construct received’t be held again fairly as a lot.
It’ll in all probability be a number of days till we all know precisely what secrets and techniques the Farewell To Arms updates holds, and I’m anticipating some grin-inducing surprises. Anyone who has seen the genre-bending secret boss of the Advanced Gungeons & Draguns replace is conscious that Dodge Roll are a really artistic bunch, and I’d not be too shocked in the event that they’d saved one of the best for final. While there might but be some small steadiness and bug-fix patches after this, they now contemplate Gungeon to be full and completed, and may now focus absolutely on their subsequent mission. I want them one of the best of luck and a following wind.
Oh, and a very powerful function of all? You can now pet the canine.
