Press release:
Oceanside, CA – November, 13.
The US-based indie games studio Matrioshka Games and the video games publisher V Publishing are today very pleased and excited to announce that they have just released some new game modes for their biblical hack-and-slash RPG “Fallen Angel” (the game is out right now via Steam).

The pixel art “Paradise Lost” inspired epoch has unleashed Challenge and Boss Rush Modes to up the hellacious challenge of exacting revenge on Heaven.

In Fallen Angel, players will traverse the many and varied realms of Heaven as Lucifer seeking revenge for his exile. Modeled after the Archangels that preside over them, the realms of Heaven range from cyberpunk nightclubs to idyllic earth-like plains. As Lucifer, players can choose to hack through the denizens of Heaven in head-to-head melee combat or unleash ranged volleys.

Players looking to up the ante of difficulty in Lucifer’s Old Testament-worthy crusade can try out the newly introduced Challenge Modes. Players can toggle one or multiple challenges modes to modify their journey through the pearly gates. From going without upgrades to fighting without weapons and the unforgiving permadeath, players can find new ways to punish Heaven’s minions as well as themselves.

Releasing alongside Challenge Modes is Boss Rush Mode where players can test their angelic and demonic skills against the game’s bosses and compete for their spot on the global leaderboards. At the start of a new game, players are able to activate Boss Rush Mode. Players will be given three loot chests with randomized items, upgrades, and consumables before each boss. They’ll then have the option to face all the game’s bosses in story order or take their chances with a random rotation. After bringing a beat down of biblical proportions to all bosses, players’ times will be posted on the leaderboards.

Challenge Modes and Boss Rush Mode are now available for players to explore in Fallen Angel on Steam.

A full list of features include:

An incredible soundtrack to battle through Heaven’s gates and eliminate all archangels that stand in the way to the throne of Heaven.
Brutal and seamless combat styles for ground and aerial approaches, including unique combos for players to smash out.
Upgrade Lucifer’s abilities through RPG character progression.
Change out your weapon loadout and give yourself new abilities with lots of weapons and relics found all over the world, each with its own unique lore.
Beautiful pixel art and animations with several different flavors of Heaven.
Challenging boss fights that re-imagine the marvels of the Old Testament.
Full controller support to suit every player’s preferred style.
Co-op availability to bring carnage to Heaven with a friend.
