The new weapons dlc that was announced last month is nearing release! This is one of the biggest gameplay updates to ever be released for BlastZone 2 and it is completely free! This update introduces 9 new weapons to the game and overhauls the weapon loudouts for every ship. This brings the new total to 15 weapons to destroy your foes! Many of the ships' stats have also been rebalanced to better fit their new weapon loudouts.
Here is the complete list of new weapons:
- Flurry Shot - Rapid fire tiny pellets that move at high velocity
- Barrage Shot - A densely packed group of bolts to punch through enemy lines
- Power Burst - A short range, high damage shot that covers a wide angle in front of the ship. Can be equated to a shotgun-style attack
- Exploder Shot - A medium-range grenade that damages all enemies in the blast radius
- Explode Cluster 1 - Fires multiple explosion grenades at once
- Explode Cluster 2 - Fires a larger group of explosion grenades at once
- Explode Cluster 3 - Fires a tremendous amount of explosion grenades at once, covering a large portion of the screen
- Wave Shot - Fires a vertical line of bolts simultaneously to cover a larger swath of the screen than regular bolts.
- Force Field - Protects the ship from enemy bullets and can be used to purposely ram into enemies without the player taking any damage
There are also new ways to access existing weapons such as the Laser, Wide Beam, and Power Bolt by charging up with specific ships. This update includes numerous other balancing updates, tweaks, and bug fixes as well.
This update will be released on or around June 1st, 2015. Hope everyone enjoys it!
