GO! GO!
Behold Studios has announced a free update coming to the PC version of their tactical role-playing game, Chroma Squad. For those unfamiliar, Chroma Squad follows a group stunt actors who decided to strike out on their own and make a Power Rangers-inspired TV show. You do everything from balancing budgets to buying cardboard monster suits.
“Director’s Cut” Features:
- New Game + – The adventure no longer ends after the credits roll- with the “New Game++” features you can keep playing with your current party, facing procedural generated enemies and goals on the episodes, crafting new items, and perhaps making different story choices that could lead to unexplored paths!
- Revamped Mecha Fights – The Mecha Fights have been completely revamped to be faster and more fun, and the random chances were replaced by new reflex mini-games!
- New “Heroic” Difficulty – Difficulty levels have been completely rebalanced to offer a more customizable experience, including a new super-hard mode called “Heroic Difficulty”!
- Revamped Encounter Balancing – We have also tweaked a few encounters in the game that were famously unfair or long (*cough cough* Mini-Kaiju Squad *cough cough*)!
- Bug fixes and performance improvements – we also fixed some bugs and the game should be running smoother and faster overall!
These updates were previously only available on the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Chroma Squad, and include things like a new difficulty mode, encounter balancing, and a New Game+ mode. You can check out the full patch notes here.
I played a whole lot of Chroma Squad when it initially released. A New Game+, and some changes to the otherwise boring Mecha fights might be enough to draw me back in.
