Deflector's Summer major update

Greetings, Specimens! You may have witnessed the full release of Deflector, but we did tell you updates were still going to happen! And it's time for a big one.

This scorching Summer update brings with it multiple ways to become stronger both for you, and for your dire foes. We'll cover them in great detail further down the line, but for now let's dive right in with the broad strokes.

New evolutions for each bio-shell

Whether you just can't stop bouncing boomerangs as the Eradicator or bully viruses with Lightfist's punches - every bio-shell in the game is getting a brand new evolution! Unlocking them however isn't as simple as looking the Deflector AI straight in the eye(s) and saying "Pretty please". You'll have to complete a challenge to unlock each of them.

New virus strains

Since you've been doing so well against the existing virus strains it's time to add some new ones to the mix. With a total of four, you'll find them doing interesting things to the bullets you're used to deflecting and the enemies you're used to seeing in a given biome.

New anomalies

Rockets and larvae and poison puddles - oh my!

New languages added to the game

Deflector is now available in Traditional Chinese and Japanese!

Balance tweaks to Lightfist's Multiple Strike Evolution

Now breaking 6 marks instead of 3 and having twice the range!

We are far from done with Deflector and you can expect more updates further down the line. In the meantime - have fun in the petri dish!
