You can also revive yourself after a knockdown by holding fire instead of mashing, too, although it's not quite as fast as hammering on it. There are auto-aim and revive assist options, making precise aiming and button-mashing less essential. There's also been some improvements to accessibility. The new mode has its own leaderboards, too, and completing levels in the new Campaign+ mode with each character unlocks new skins.Įffectively, the new mode doubles the game's size to fifty story levels, plus challenge modes.

The Campaign+ mode is genuinely intense, with the very first level being significantly longer, far more difficult and more varied. The fast, bassy soundtrack still bangs, the explosions are nice, and the upgrades ( detailed in full here) go a long way to extending the fun. It's not often that a four-year-old arcade game gets an overhaul, but thanks to Assault Android Cactus's slick Dreamcast-inspired art direction, I don't feel like it has aged a day. The game is also on sale, before a price increase tomorrow. Daring players can now face down endgame enemies from the very beginning, remixed bosses and some downright intense bullets patterns to dodge. Now titled Assault Android Cactus+, devs Witch Beam have bulked it up with a bundle of new features, including Campaign+ mode, a second loop through the game's story mode.
