Jagex Games Studio has released a new update for their crazy shooter Block N Load and has switched the game into free to play mode.
The transition promises to take the existing core game, mechanics, and modes, and enhance them with improvements regarding combat and matchmaking. A great deal of additional content, new heroes, daily challenges, perks and player progressions are also in the mix.
Block N Load’s new daily challenge system will give players objectives which they have to fulfill within a single match or 24 hours. These challenges can come in various forms. Player might have to gain a certain number of kills or complete specific actions that allow them to generate a flow of gold bars and use them to purchase new heroes or perks.
And what are „Perks“ exactly? Well, the introduction of a Perks System in Block N Load is going to allow players to further customise their heroes and give them additional powers. (You can find an overview of all perks in Block N Load here: http://blocknload.gamepedia.com/Category:Perks). Perks can only be unlocked using gold bars, and there are more than 55 perks to choose from, including some that improve offensive and defensive capabilities on the battlefield.
Three recently announced heroes will also appear with the update: master of electricity, Vander Graaf, J-Pop, kitty-launching, Kira-chan and the always frosty, Yury the Yeti.
For those who want to get familiar with other Block N Load heroes there’s the new feature „Hero rotation“.
David Solari, vice president of Block N Load said that going free to pay was a move he and the team knew, many fans had asked and waited for. He claims to be “really proud to have made a game that is truly unique in the shooter space,” and is looking forward to more game developments based on the player community’s input.
