Jagex has just updated their multiplayer shooter Block N Load with a new ‘youthful skin’ as well as introduced two new arenas to enter the map rotation for the beta; The Last Bastion and Shuko Style.
Pre-ordering Block N Load: Fully Loaded Edition gets immediate access to the beta, as well as the ‘Skins for the Win’ pack. Jagex is currently offering fresh beta keys on their official website.
They give us the run-down on the two new arenas:
The Last Bastion
Two massive fortresses face off against each other with only a muddy pool and a single bridge to link them. Sniping from on high, charging over the bridge, or tunnelling underground to cause panic amongst the enemy; how you wreak havoc is entirely up to you! This is a vast battlefield for larger-than-life characters, and at this scale setting up small forward bases is crucial!
Shuko Style
O.P. ‘Juan’ Shinobi isn’t the only character that’s right at home on this brand new arena! Building bridges or jumping from platform to platform provide just some of the alternative routes for you to utilise as you take out the enemy’s generator cube. Clever placement of radars will also warn your team of flanking attacks while well-placed, hidden turrets can mow down enemy attackers before they get your base.
Block N Load releases on PC in February. It’s currently 33% off through Steam. The Fully Loaded Edition includes skins Hazmat Eliza, Cap’n Cog, 2080 Juan, Spaced Out Tony, Al CaStone and Old School Nigel.
