This year, we’re marking our anniversary by dropping a surprise update, and gifting players with a little something extra for the occasion!

Drive the beat of your favourite Pistol Whip Scenes with the new Drum Gun!

More instrument than gun, the ‘Drum Gun’ is an all-new weapon type for even the most seasoned Heroes (and drummers) out there.

Craft your own music with this rhythm-infused weapon, where each shot, hit, or reload will make a different sound. Moving your hand to different locations changes the sound of your shots!

Check out the visual guide below for details:

  • Four bullets on reload? Check.

  • Cymbal sound effects on reload or when whipping an enemy? Check.

  • A killer gun so you can feel like you're part of the band? Double (bass) check.

The Sonar SQ2 Drum Gun is available now in the gun case.

Behold: Three Other New Shiny Weapons

We heard your feedback about how much you loved Overdrive’s Majesty Scene, with the ability to dual-wield crossbows. So, how about playing with a few other weapons inspired by the Scene?

We've added three new weapons to the game, each expertly crafted by our blacksmiths...er, we mean devs. Find them in the gun case under their specific weapon types:

  • Metal Gauntlet (Brawler)

  • Dragon Sword (Brawler)

  • Witch Pistol (Revolver)

Thank you to all of our Action Heroes for your continued love and support. Enjoy the new weapons update!

Love, Cloudhead Games
