Hello everyone!
The Summer season is here again, and to celebrate, the Summer bonus mission (Operation: Heatwave) is once again available for all players between June 5th and June 12th. This 10 wave mission finds the Vaders attempting to use their HEATR UFO to melt the polar icecaps with fireballs. In order to stop them you'll need to defeat pesky sunglasses wearing vaders as well as destroy the UFO itself.
In addition, you might find retro mode looking a little more summery than usual as the vaders don their sunglasses in Retro mode too.
Like the other seasonal event this bonus mission and the summer themed retro mode are only available for a limited time so don't miss your opportunity to complete the mission and unlock the in-game awards and steam achievements.
Finally to celebrate our the summer season we will once again be offering the Classified Projects DLC at a 25% discount, between June 5th and June 12th. This not only gives you access to a host of additional content such as experimental blasters and alternate shield options to use in any mission but also gives you all year round access to Operation: Bad Heatwave and the other 3 seasonal missions.
Enjoy Operation: Heatwave, try not to get sunburnt and whether you choose to pick up Classified Projects or not, I hope you have a great summer!
