Recent Patch for Solstice Chronicles: Missing in Action Brings Big Changes

Jason Love

Appropriately dubbed the "Overhaul patch," the update dropped last Thursday and in addition to "improved graphics," it also allows single player progress to be pulled into the couch co-op "Survival" mode and did some tweaking of the various levels and bosses. The full notes can be found over on Steam, but here's a quick rundown:

Solstice Chronicles: MIA Arrives Next Month on PC

Whereas The Red Solstice focused more on squad combat similar to Syndicate or Satellite Reign, Solstice Chronicles: MIA opts for more of a twin-stick shooter feel. That doesn't mean Ironward has completely abandoned the class and strategy elements from their previous game, but they have tweaked things to be faster paced.

There's A New, Extremely Brief Trailer Out For Solstice Chronicles: MIA

As you're about to see in the latest trailer, the two player local co-op title doesn't have much explaining to do. You have a gun. Things want to kill you. You don't want that to happen. Extrapolate from there. In a way, it's kind of refreshing to see a trailer effectively say, "We know what you're here for, just look at it." See for yourself:

If you don't know about the game, its a tactical twin-stick shooter set in the "Solstice" universe coming PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. What exactly makes it tactical? From my hands on time with the game I can tell you its about limited ammo and positioning as to not get yourself trapped. On top of this the familiar threat level is present within a level as well, with the monsters and enemies increasing in difficulty and numbers while you try to complete your objective, very similar to The Red Solstice.

Ironward's Next Title is Solstice Chronicles: Missing in Action

Set within the same universe as Red Solstice, Solstice Chronicles: MIA puts you in the shoes of a "corporate grunt" that must fight off hordes of mutants infected by the STROL virus in order to track down a cure. At your side is a drone that can you can use to stem the tide of enemies. The title is currently aiming to feature a "skill tree system with Diablo 2 style progression, featuring 4 classes" and local co-op for two players, each of whom will be able to customize their own grunt however they see fit.
