Lightning Force Push

The Lightning Force ability has been expanded with a powerful force push attack. Launch groups of enemies away, create breathing room during intense fights, and use the environment itself as a weapon.

Jump Hook

Jump Hooks now appear randomly throughout the environment, offering new opportunities for both mobility and combat.

Launch yourself through the battlefield and crash into groups of enemies with a powerful impact, sending nearby foes flying in all directions. Steam post image

Quests & Star Progression

We've added the first version of our Quest System alongside Star Progression. Complete objectives and find stars during your runs to earn progression and unlock new levels.

Expanded Skill Trees

A third Skill Tree is now available in the demo, giving players access to even more progression paths and build possibilities. We're excited to see the crazy synergies players discover.

Visual, Audio & Performance Improvements

• First level lighting has been significantly improved
