Loot River is getting a raft of updates across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, including a brand new level editor that will allow players to create, play, and share custom levels with cross-platform support.
Along with the new level editor, players can also expect loading times that have been decreased by more than 50 percent, improved frame rates, and other general improvements. The PlayStation version of the game will also feature haptic vibration support and the ability to jump into the Daily Run straight from the PlayStation system user interface via the PlayStation Activities system. These updates add to improvements made since the game’s Xbox and PC launch, including the addition of leaderboards, Daily Runs, new enemies, and items and an easy mode with animation canceling.
In Loot River, players are able to harness the power of the Relic to shift the ground beneath them, sliding around on the floating pieces of ruined landscapes. These Tetris-like blocks can be slotted together to solve spatial exploration puzzles and employed creatively as a tool in combat to manipulate enemies and control the space on which your battles take place. As players venture through these endless catacombs, they’ll encounter horrifying beasts, lost travelers, and epic bosses.
