The best part of the game is the deep level of customization you do on the fly during combat making sure you pick the right upgrades to fit your intended playstyle and defeat the seemingly endless enemies thrown at you, to say nothing of the difficult bosses you face as well. To give you a taste of the game in the video above I played through the tutorial mode up to the first boss where I jussssttt couldn’t defeat em!
What’s New in the Sequel?
-
Expanded Customization: More unique pilots, unlockable warships with their own strengths and weaknesses, and a hugely expanded upgrade system offer new creative freedom.
-
Weapon Mastery: Each pilot has masterful command over their starting weapon, giving them a unique weapon variant no other pilot has access to.
-
Pilot Skills: Pilots start with a unique ability, not tied to any equipment slots or weapons, giving them a flair all their own.
-
Weapon Enhancements: Every weapon has 4 unique upgrades to choose from to further specialize as you play.

Utilities: Discover common, uncommon, and rare upgrades that you can stack infinitely to create the perfect build. Make trades with special characters to refine your builds like never before.
-
Refined Control: Every ship comes equipped with an active dodge ability for getting out of the most dangerous situations. Use the new "Air Brake" to make micro-adjustments to positioning when the bullets start flying. And 360-degree analog movement brings Gunlocked out of the retro era and firmly into the present.

Branching Paths: Periodically choose a warp gate and seamlessly jump to your chosen destination without ever pausing the gameplay. Different zones offer unique battles and rewards. Every run offers new choices!
