changedIt’s been some time since we had an update and this next one’s a real game-changer: it literally changes the multiplayer gameplay! A lot of the feedback we’ve gotten on Blink: Rogues was related to our namesake mechanic: the Blink. And the feedback we’ve gotten was different and often conflicting: there should be more of it or less of it, it should be more visible or stealthier and so on. But one way or another, we knew there was room for improvement. So for the past few weeks we’ve been (play)testing different hypothesis to make matches in Blink: Rogues more action-packed than ever before. Here’s what we’ve got for you:
removedBLINK + SPECIAL POWERS = ♥ - Jim won’t know what hit him when the moment you Blink to his screen, your EMP power activates! Special powers are no longer button activated, instead they activate on Blink. Before the match starts, you choose one power for Blinking to your opponent’s screen and one for Blinking back. Choose from: Invulnerability, EMP, Double Damage and Shockwave (for now). And then you’re all set for wreaking havoc the moment you Blink!
addedNO WORDS TUTORIAL - Wanna give Jim the surprise of a lifetime by mastering the new mechanics in Blink: Rogues before a match? Give our new tutorial a try. And never fear, the other Single Player missions await their turn to be revamped to match the changes we’ve made in multiplayer. So stay tuned for updates on that front!

BLINK WITH NO HARD-LIMIT - Is your friend Jim getting ahead of you in the game? Now you can pester him by Blinking to his screen to steal or kill as much as your heart desires.

FLIP MECHANIC - Did Jim think he was safe shooting you in the back after he Blinked to your screen? Not anymore! You can flip your ship to shoot him in the face! How about that, Jim?
