More Modes and Systems Offered in New Update for Gunjack 2: End of Shift

Providing new content for their latest EVE-universe centered virtual reality project, CCP Games have announced their Shangai Studio have released a new update for the fast-paced turret shooter Gunjack 2: End of Shift. This update is now available to download at no charge.

There are four main components to this update: Challenges, Weekly Shift, a Progression System and a Loadout System. You can read more about each of these new additions below:

Challenges: These new challenges will see players matched against others in a competition for the highest score in a “mutator enhanced mission”. Mutators are set to “dramatically alter the characteristics of a Challenge and players must adapt accordingly if they want to prove that they are the top Gunjack”.

Weekly Shift: Taking over the former Daily Shift system, players will be able to tackle seven procedurally generated missions each week. High scores for each mission will be displayed on a leaderboard, highlighting those “best able to destroy waves of attackers and defend the Kubera”.

Progression System: Competing in challenges and Weekly Shift missions will reward players with experience, which will now allow you to unlock a range of special weapon upgrades. These include the all-new Pyro Slicer (a fiery destruction dispenser), the ‘Maelstrom’ Autocannon (which focuses on dealing raw damage) and the ‘Carnage’ Flak Cannon (Which according to CCP Games will put the “”Aaaargghhhhh!” in carnage” with its area-of-effect capabilities).

Loadout System: Hoping to provide “greater strategic depth to the game by enabling players to customise their special weapon loadouts for the Challenges and Weekly Shift game modes”, CCP Games have also included a new Loadout System. They hope that this system will give new players “more ways to hone their skills and become the greatest Gunjack that ever lived… if they can survive the would-be plunderers trying to blow their rig apart”

Unlike its predecessor which was made available on the Samsung VR, Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and PlayStation VR, Gunjack 2: End of Shift is available exclusively on Google’s new Daydream platform, priced at $12.99 USD.
