Blitz Mode Available Now!

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Blitz Mode is now available!

Once you have beaten the game, Blitz Mode is unlocked automatically and can be selected on a new save file.

In this shorter mode, progression is sped up and slightly changed:

  • Research is integrated directly into the Core Grid. There are no Kernel Ops or Research tabs.

  • You start with 1 token, allowing you to unlock an additional weapon immediately.

  • Enemies drop more bits by default, and the Bits Increase skill increases them even further.

  • Threat Level is capped at 10, but it will still require a lot of firepower to beat.

  • You can select your own music track as well!

Have fun, operators!
