Strike Rush Full System Overhaul Revamps VR Hero Shooter
Skonec Entertainment has announced an extensive overhaul based on fan feedback for the hit VR PvP Hero Shooter, Strike Rush.
Seoul, South Korea, 24th October 2024 - Skonec Entertainment is excited to announce a Full System Overhaul for the popular hero shooter Strike Rush. Known as Season 2: Unknown Villain, new gameplay modes, Blitzers, Blitzmon, maps and a full UI overhaul have arrived today as part of the total restructuring of the popular VR PvP game!
Debuting on Meta Quest headsets in April 2024, Strike Rush has seen several updates since launch, including the popular SHINING VESSEL update launched in Summer 2024. Now, thanks to player feedback, a Full System Overhaul has been designed to bring more action-packed experiences to fans both old and new!
New Gameplay Modes
The addition of a Team Deathmatch mode offers a more aggressive, combat-focused playstyle, providing a different thrill from capture modes. Players can enter a matchmaking queue while enjoying the recently added Quick Battle mode, and once team matching is complete you’ll automatically enter the Team Deathmatch.
In addition, a new Quest system will introduce daily and weekly quests to earn rewards. Quests can be as simple as winning a Quick Battle match or Team Deathmatch, but for greater rewards you can expect a greater challenge!
New Characters
Two mysterious new characters, Cain and Benny, will make their Strike Rush debuts, each bringing unique skills and strategies. The cold-blooded assassin Cain overwhelms enemies with unpredictable tactics and powerful crowd control skills. Meanwhile, new Blitzmon, Benny, is a new 'Goblin-type'. This Blitzmon may look cute, but underestimating him could come with irreversible consequences!
New Weapons
A new weapon will be added alongside the new playable characters: the rocket launcher 'Griffin'. This high-impact weapon delivers explosive AoE damage, highly effective against multiple enemies. Players can obtain the Griffin during matches at specific locations in each arena. But be warned, the spawns are limited, so you’ll have to be fast!
New Map
Following this summer’s SHINING VESSEL map addition, B-13 Laboratory is a new multiplayer level featuring a multi-layered structure. This new map presents new tactical opportunities in all gameplay modes. A large open area on the ground floor will see mass fighting breakout; can you pin the enemy here while taking the advantage and heading to the top floor for objective capture?
With the launch of the Full System Overhaul, the Team Deathmatch and Quick Battle modes will also gain access to every map in Strike Rush, including this new addition!
UI Overhaul
With a game as slick as Strike Rush, the systems should always match the action! As such, Skonec is delivering a complete overhaul of the menus and UI to create a more immersive experience for all players from the very first moment you enter the game!
