We're proud to announce Neon Chrome - Arena - an upcoming DLC for Neon Chrome. The Arena is - as you can maybe tell from the name - an arena-based survival game mode for Neon Chrome. It will have online leaderboards - something we've wanted to create for Neon Chrome from the beginning.
The concept is simple: Kill waves of enemies, upgrade weapons, install enhancements and try to survive as long as possible. The Arena is leaderboard based so your goal is to collect as much credits as you can before you die. The games will last between 1-10 minutes depending mainly on skill but also on luck a bit.
All the roles have their own leaderboards as they play very differently and some are better than others. It will be interesting to see how the scores align. Expect some leaderboard wipes during the first few weeks as we balance the game.
At first the Arena will be independent from the main game, but eventually we could maybe give rewards in the main game. However, due to balancing issues this will not be a launch feature.
Currently we hope to launch next week but it may change if we run into any trouble. The price will be announced later.
