6 Reasons to Jump
Back into Battlezone!
A mere five months ago PlayStation VR launched and
Battlezone was right there alongside it! Since then we’ve seen so many of you
strap yourselves in and obliterate legions of evil AI enemies, hopefully
feeling like you’re right there in our tank. It’s been such a blast seeing you
all enjoy our very first venture into virtual reality...it might have been
yours too!
But the battle doesn’t have to stop just yet. Today we’re bringing
a ton of new content to Battlezone, much of it completely free, because we want
to give you as many reasons as possible to hop back into your Cobra tank.
Whether you’re a seasoned tank commander or thinking about
picking it up for the first time, here are some of the great new things you’ll
find in Battlezone!
NEW DIFFICULTIES, NEW
CHALLENGES
Whether you’ve conquered the volcano endgame many times or are still
struggling to reach it, we’ve got you covered. Today we’re rounding out the
difficulty modes with a more lenient Beginner level and, for the experts, a
gruelling Extreme level, both free. Extreme is such a massive challenge that
we’re rewarding those mighty enough to beat it with a new trophy, as well as
three new tank loadouts - though you’ll have to beat it three times to earn
each loadout! That said, they’re 100% worth it for advanced players who want a
complete four-player team of tanks...
MORE MISSIONS, NEW
ENVRIONMENTS
Since launch we’ve added new missions, maps and events to
the Battlezone campaign, again all free, and we’re doing the same with today’s
update. The new levels we’ve added this time around are all swimming in lava,
so you might imagine when you’ll start seeing them (hint: near the end!). We’ll
let you find out for yourself what awaits you in our new King of the Hill and
Conquest missions...
A NEW THREAT, A NEW
WEAPON
Starting today, if you look up to the skies you’ll see a new
foe to take on – the Jet. This fighter plane may look a little light as it
curves gracefully around the arena, but you don’t want to be on the wrong side
of its machine gun!
So, to balance things we’ve added a brand new weapon to your
arsenal, and it’s a bit of a monster! You’ll now be able to equip the Railgun,
a beast of a firearm that you have
to charge up before letting rip with a BIG, single shot blast that can do some
serious, serious damage.
Both the Railgun and the Jet are in Battlezone starting
today, and yep, they’re free!
PLAY WITH THE DEVS
Make sure to keep up to date with our Events calendar, which
you’ll find in the Battlezone live area on your PlayStation 4. We’ll be posting
community events there, including tomorrow’s Play with the Devs session,
starting 4PM GMT. Ride out alongside the creators of the game in four-player
co-op during this special two-hour event. For more info, hit up Battlezone’s
Events tab on your PS4.
