Free-to-play game Steel Diver: Sub Wars is getting a major version 2.0 update later this month, the game’s director, Takaya Imamura, has announced via Miiverse.
“In Version 2.0, in Internet Battle mode, you will now also earn bonuses for consecutive victories in Matched Skills Battles,” Imamura writes. “Additionally, owners of the Premium Version will have access to a larger arsenal of subs as they level up, and more subs will be made available for purchase in the Online Shop within the game.”
He continues, “We also received a lot of feedback via Miiverse about players attacking their allies. In Version 2.0, players who torpedo their allies will receive a warning message on their screen, and points will be deducted for every hit. We’re also planning to add a new multiplayer stage, and to continue to fine-tune the submarine stats, among other things.”
Steel Diver: Sub Wars is currently one of two free-to-play games that Nintendo are operating, the other being Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball. While Rusty is a compilation of minigames, Sub Wars includes a major online multiplayer component, which has seen ongoing updates since the game’s release.
Thanks to everyone that sent in the tip!
