So you completed Valfaris and are feeling pretty smug about yourself. Well, don't get too cocky because the challenge isn't over yet! I'm happy to confirm that the free Full Metal Mode update is now live and it can't wait to kick your ass.

Here's what Full Metal Mode has got in store for you:

• All weapons, upgrades, and upgrade items carry over between runs
• Enemies have increased health, attack, and aggression
• Bosses receive the same buffs - with additional attack patterns
• Therion takes more damage
• New Destroyer Class Weapon
• New Achievement for defeating Full Metal Mode

Full Metal Mode unlocks after completing the game, so if you've already got a 'Game Clear' save file, you'll be able to jump into the – even deadlier – action as soon as the update has installed.

See the new weapon in action, as well as catching a glimpse of a couple of the new boss attacks, in the Full Metal Mode trailer:

Good luck and godspeed to everyone firing up Full Metal Mode!

There's also good news for anyone who hasn't picked up Valfaris yet – it's on sale now with 30% off as part of a Steam Weeklong Deal (ends 14 Dec, 10am PT). The Digital Deluxe Edition, which includes the soundtrack and art book, is also discounted.
