Did you know that we are hard at work on the next installment of Story Mode??
Chapter 3 is slowly taking shape, and we finally have a few images to show you!

We're aiming to launch the update in mid-September! Update: launching September 29th -- it will be worth the wait!!

Here is a minor SPOOOOOOOOOILER ALERT!

Click away if you don't want to know what happens in Chapter 3.

Here we go:

Some highlights:

• No Arena! - For the first time in the short history of the game, the action takes place outside of the arena.
• AI Companion - Fighting alongside you will be the other escaped human! You'll be able to equip both humans with different upgrades and switch back and forth between them.
• City overhaul! - Let's face it. That city at the end of chapter 1 and 2 looked kinda placeholdery. We've been hard at work concepting something that will look much better.
• Armor - The new combat mechanic of the update is: ARMOR! Any enemy in the game will be able to wear armor, preventing damage before shattering. In keeping with the detailed damage model of the game, armor only protects specific body parts.
• Business Bots - In Chapter 3 your minds will inhabit the slender frames of Business Bots. Watch their robot ties wave in the wind!
• Glowing Eyes - Every robot in the game is getting glowing eyes that fade out dramatically when they die.

We're aiming to launch the update in mid-September.

It's taking a bit longer than many of our smaller updates have, in part because we want to create something super cool, but also because Erik (that's me) has a new side project:

We're having a lot of fun building this update. :)
