Skonec Entertainment has unleashed a massive update for its popular VR hero shooter Strike Rush. Titled Season 2: Unknown Villain, this overhaul introduces a slew of new features, including fresh game modes, characters, maps, and an upgraded user interface. The update, which is available now on Meta Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest 3S, and Quest Pro, is completely free for existing players.
A Complete System Overhaul to Enhance Player Experience
Based on extensive feedback from the community, Strike Rush now offers a revamped experience aimed at delivering faster, more intense action. The developers have introduced new gameplay options and strategic elements to keep players engaged and offer new challenges for veterans and newcomers alike.
New Game Modes and Quest System
The Season 2 update brings two new game modes: Team Deathmatch, a high-paced, combat-centric mode that focuses on eliminating opponents, and Quick Battle, which lets players enter matchmaking quickly while waiting for team setup. Once your team is matched, you’ll automatically transition into Team Deathmatch mode. Additionally, Strike Rush now features a Quest System that rewards players for completing daily and weekly challenges, ranging from winning matches to mastering specific skills.
New Characters and Weapons
Two new characters join the fight in Strike Rush:
- Cain: A cold-blooded assassin equipped with unpredictable tactics and crowd-control abilities.
- Benny: A mischievous Goblin-type Blitzmon that looks cute but delivers serious damage in battle.
To add even more firepower, the update also introduces the Griffin rocket launcher, a high-impact weapon capable of dealing devastating AoE damage. Players can find and claim this powerful weapon at specific locations within each map—but be quick, as spawns are limited!
New Map: B-13 Laboratory
Following the addition of the SHINING VESSEL map this summer, Season 2 introduces B-13 Laboratory. This new map features a multi-layered layout that opens up diverse tactical opportunities, from large-scale ground fights to strategic upper-level captures. All maps in Strike Rush, including B-13 Laboratory, are now accessible in both Quick Battle and Team Deathmatch modes.
Enhanced UI and Player Experience
With this update, Skonec has revamped the entire user interface to offer a more streamlined and immersive experience. The goal is to provide a slicker look that matches the action-packed gameplay and helps players dive into the game with ease.
Key Features of Season 2: Unknown Villain:
- New Game Mode: Team Deathmatch for intense, fast-paced action.
