Rogue Flight update adds Void Challenge Mode

Perp Games and Truant Pixels are back with the latest major update for Rogue Flight, and the space combat title has now received a Void Challenge Mode.

The mode has players testing their skills from Friday to Sunday every weekend. Also, for one weekend every month, players are invited to submit their best scores to potentially win real-life prizes.

Here’s a rundown of how it all works:

In the Void Challenge Mode, players will start with only 60 seconds on the clock and must achieve and maintain combos in order to pause time. The higher the combo, the higher the score and the longer the player will last.

The Void Challenge evolves depending on how much of the core game the player has completed. Players who have yet to finish the game will start the mode with the basic Vulcan and whatever upgrades they have applied, while those who have completed NewGame+ start with all the weapons unlocked and a Seraph upgrade in addition to any upgrades they have applied.

The enemies and encounters evolve based on the players progress through the core game mode. Even the way the level looks will change, featuring remnants of previously completed stages and even the wrecks of past defeated bosses.

Void Challenge Mode includes a new song, “Ashes” from Rinn. Players who have yet to complete the game will be treated to an instrumental version of the song during the Void Challenge. However, those who have completed NewGame+ will get the full song with the vocals. Also, anyone with retro mode enabled can enjoy a 16-bit PCM version.

If all of this doesn’t sound exciting enough to Rogue Flight fans, Perp Games and Truant Pixels also want to announce an ongoing chance for players to win some exciting prizes, from physical copies of the game, hats, t-shirts, pins, and stickers, to 3D printed representations of the Arrow (the ship from the game).

– On the third weekend of every month, running from Friday to Sunday, players can take a screenshot from their best run, showing the highscore.

– This can be captured using the screenshot functions of the players console or PC.

– The screenshot can be submitted to socials using the hashtags #IntoTheVoid & #RogueFlight or sent directly to ‘[email protected]’.

– The winners from each competition weekend will be notified within seven days of the competition ending and will have a further seven days to respond. They will be notified via whichever means they submitted their entry (X, Facebook, Instagram, BskyB, or email).
