Video games are an extremely fast-growing form of entertainment, where many products are gaining and losing popularity just as quickly. However, sometimes developers still think about their old creations, with the recent update of Serious Sam 2 being a perfect example.
The classic shooter, which turns 16 in October, will now have a wide variety of new features. Among the main ones are 12 new locations and two types of weapons (a flamethrower and the Beam Gun that did not reach the original release). The gameplay also received changes, namely the introduction of dual-wielding and a rocket pack. Now the player can fly in the air and destroy all living things with two flamethrowers at the same time – what else do you need?
Less significant innovations lay in the area of the overall design. They are mainly adapting the UI to modern displays and their resolutions or fixing some minor bugs.
According to Nathan Brown, the main creator of the update, he worked on it in and the Serious Sam 4 game at the same time. He also stated that one of the main reasons for releasing the patch was the Serious Sam 2 community, which still loves the game.
This update is another event in celebration of the Serious Sam series 20th anniversary. I am sure that this is not the last thing that the developers will please us with!
