It's finally here!
Our biggest update yet is now live for everyone and marks the official end of the Early Access period. Here's a quick summary for some of the improvements you'll find with this version of the game:
- Boost jump is here! We've added a double jump ability for all players which is enabled by default for PC players and can be toggled for VR players in the control menu. Navigate the battlefield like never before by weaving jump and teleport, making it incredibly fluid to move around the environments.
- PC cross-play with VR is officially supported! With Gunheart 1.0 we're officially supporting playing the game either in classic desktop mode or in full VR. At any time you can jump into games with other players with any other platform, and if you choose to upgrade from desktop to VR you'll have all your unlocks and progress always available.
- Brainspace introduction & tutorial! New players will be introduced to the Gunheart universe via PalCo's Brainspace interface. Here you'll learn the basics of controlling your rig before you're sent off into your first job on Planet Fortune. Watch out for those bugs!
- New VO and music tracks! We've recorded hundreds of new lines of dialogue to add clarity and extra backstory as you journey through the campaign. Several new music tracks have been introduced to various missions as well to make your bounty hunting adventure even more exciting.
- Lobby/region select now available on startup, giving you the option to join directly into your friend's games or to pick another Bent Horizon to meet up with other players. You can also opt out of this to directly auto-connect to the lowest ping region.
- PalCo rig interface has been updated to make it easier to manage your look and also upgrade your core stats in a single interface. There were also a few cosmetic items that are now possible the unlock that previously were hiding away!
- Shooting range has been upgraded with a combo scoring system that rewards coordination between multiple bounty hunters when trying to hit the top of the leaderboards. We've also added some more targets and spawning areas so be sure to explore the shooting range on your next visit.
