Press release:
The Seattle-based (the US) indie games developer Batterystaple Games are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the 1.2 content update for their mega-roguelite platformer “30XX” (the sequel to Batterystaple Games’ roguelite/platformer 20XX).
The said update is available right now for PC via Steam (the Nintendo Switch update of the game will launch in a very near future).
The 1.2 content update introduces an entirely new playable character, new level events, and quality-of-life improvements in today’s free 1.2 content update, available now on PC via Steam.
Get Hype and go for Glory as Delta, a brand-new character with stylish tricks up his sleeve. Simultaneously switch between both Nina and Ace’s weapons as Delta to generate Hype with each hit, then activate Glory to grant a burst of speed, damage, and NRG to fuel his wide range of available Powers.
30XX is on sale now for 30% off on Steam starting today through April 29! The game will also be on sale for 25% off on Nintendo Switch from April 17 through April 23!
Spice up variety between each run with new Alt Phases. Encounter the Burning Temple, Deepverse, and Highvault stages on level 3+ for the opportunity to trigger some unexpected twists, including some surprising new minibosses!
Hungry for quicker runs? Activate the new Ephemeral Journey Condition to cut runs down to five levels instead of ten. Delve deeper into the mind of 30XX’s orchestrator of villainous events in brand-new Datalore for enemies and bosses.
Perform new actions as Nina and Ace! The same way Delta’s unique action activates Glory, Nina’s Stance Lock will keep her in place while shooting, allowing for more precise aim with her weapons. Ace’s Blade Swap allows him to quickly switch between primary weapons. These quality-of-life updates and more await in the new 1.2 update!
30XX is available now on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. The 1.2 update is available now on Steam, followed by Nintendo Switch in the coming days.
