The Season 1 Update for the rogue-like action shooter ANVIL is now available. This content patch introduces the Season Challenge mode, where you can choose the difficulty level, as well as the opponents you want to fight.
This new game mode consists of 10 planet selections. The difficulty level increases gradually, though the bigger the challenge, the better the final reward will be. The rewards can be redeemed by heading to the Season Challenge menu (Galaxy > Season Challenge).
You also can change weapon effects. Coins are consumed whenever you modify your arsenal and the cost of doing so increases gradually. However, the cost resets when the current planet is cleared.
Aside from getting exciting rewards, a badge will be pinned next to your ID and it will indicate the last challenge level you’ve cleared. The badge shines brighter as you complete the more difficult levels.
If you’re ok with spending some money, you can purchase the new premium season pass. It contains 100 ranks and they are now easier to achieve compared to what was available in the preseason. It’s also worth mentioning that the premium pass comes with the V2 Toy Worker, which has the Medic V2 and Hive V2 skills.
