Hi there, it’s Tommaso from Housemarque again. At the beginning of July, Alienation saw the addition of two widely requested features: local co-op and ranked leagues, among a variety of novelties such as extra weapons, bullet colors, and other minor improvements.
The next update hitting PS4 today unleashes an array of new, exciting features. Let’s start with the stuff every Alienation owner will get free of charge: Weekly Missions! These are missions to be played with unusual rules for an additional challenge — beat them within seven days and you’ll get a reward!
And since we’re talking about rewards, it’s definitely worth mentioning that we heard you loud and clear: you can now loot and collect armors with different modifiers (for example, an armor that recharges your Rush faster, but makes Reload slower), and even customize their colors provided you collect enough of the 42 different paints available…
Other free additions to the game include an extra difficulty level (named “Legend”), six new Trophies, and increased Hero Level cap.
Along with the free content we’re also releasing more paid content: new arsenal, with the secondary weapon Devastator and the heavy Collapser, respectively resembling a sort of deadly laser ray and a cannon with bouncing projectiles, the Armor Paint Pack featuring three exclusive armor paints, and the Veteran Heroes pack (which allows you to start with characters at Level 15 and access to World Level 2).
You’ll be able to purchase the Weapon Pack for $4.99, the Armor Paint Pack for $0.99, and the Veteran Heroes pack for $4.99, or buy each individual item separately. Needless to say, owners of the Alienation Season Pass get all of the above without spending a single extra dime.
So, what are you waiting for? Head to PlayStation Store and grab one right now!
I’m glad I get to post before some lame ass lemur does with a “FIRST!”. Lol
Hoping this new content will be enough for me to get back into this already awesome game.^^
you know what would be a really freaking awesome reward for doing one of these weekly missions? Here’s this for an idea: a 12 slot-able legendary weapon that will work for the “By the power of weird alien artifacts, I have the power!” trophy. I would gladly come back to this game and spend money on the DLC, as well as invest time into getting the platinum. I would happily come back to the table and bring my friends back to it, as well. I would even go as far as to recommend it to friends, too.
This trophy and its terrible RNG is what made me put the game down in the first place. And I refuse to come back until this elusive trophy becomes easier to obtain.
A trophy made you stop playing a game? Yikes!
When did you stop playing? I was in the same bind, but got my 12-slot like the day after the July update (the one that added couch co-op). Supposedly the drop rate on them got improved.
