Last year, we brought all the crashing and blasting action of Relic Hunters Zero to the Nintendo Switch in the franchise’s first ever port to a Nintendo system. While developing the Nintendo Switch version, we updated the core game to bring even more excitement and action to players, who have been eagerly anticipating Relic Hunter Legend.
Today, that update finally hits the PC – absolutely free!
The Relic Hunters Zero: Remix update takes off with massive updates and expansions to the game’s classic, addicting game modes! We’ve brought in ten new weapons from the game’s top content creators, toggleable skins for every playable character, a bangin’ new soundtrack of high energy tunes, and a whole suite of long-asked-for bug fixes and optimizations! Speaking of that soundtrack, pick it up today on Steam as well, so you too can vibe with “Spaceheart” or rock out to “Duke Ducan Forever.”
The update does bring one small change that I want to take a moment to highlight. Relic Hunters Zero: Remix won’t be an open-source product. While the original release of Relic Hunters Zero will remain up and playable for all players in its current state, we won’t be able to freely release the code underlying the Remix update. This isn’t intended to disrupt the use of Steam Workshop mods, but it’s likely that mod creators will need to update their content to properly interface with the Remix Update. Otherwise a guaranteed way to play with your mods is playing on the original Relic Hunters Zero branch (minus the Remix update). You can follow this link to find detailed instructions on how to change your playable game version.
