The world of Blaston has grown, and with it, new challengers have appeared to take down the duelists! In this update we're introducing:
A new single-player campaign: The Octopresence have invaded the underground world of Blaston dueling with Octo Agents. Some duelists have reportedly been hacked by an unknown entity called ModOps. It's time to take them on and find out more why and who is behind it all!
New battle arena: Finish the campaign and unlock the new arena Scrapper's Market in the store to battle opponents in a new environment.
New avatar & skins: Play through the campaign and unlock the ModOps skins in the store! We’ve also added the Octo Agent and the legendary Viper Ellipse as Mission Rewards.
Upgraded Ozo Lounge: The social space for Blaston has been upgraded and expanded! There are now Tokens to be used in the Ozo Lounge to play improved versions of the arcade game Alien Blast (now called Super Alien Blast), and a jukebox has been added to Disco 99!
bHaptics Integration for Oculus: Want to fully experience the rush of playing Blaston? Well now you can by using bHaptics vests. Now you can wear one while playing Blaston on Oculus, and take your gameplay to the next level. Pinpoint where you get hit and get more instant feedback during your matches!
