On October 19, developer Housemarque launched the free "SAROS: Zenith" update for the bullet-hell action game SAROS. According to design lead Abebe Tinari, the update aims to improve accessibility for newcomers while providing fresh challenges for experienced players who have already explored Carcosa.
The update introduces a "game speed reduction" feature, allowing players to slow down gameplay to better react to enemy attacks. This can be adjusted manually or set to trigger automatically during combat. Additionally, a new "auto-fire" setting enables automatic weapon discharge when targeting enemies, though players must still perform manual reloads to achieve "perfect reloads."
The "Carcosa Modifier" system has been expanded with 20 new options. Protection modifiers include "Corruption Melee Boost," which converts corruption into extra melee damage. Conversely, Trial modifiers like "Enemy Regeneration" force players to use melee attacks to finish off enemies that recover from ranged damage.
Post-game content now includes "New Game+" and the "Eclipse Layer." After completing the main story, players can access these modes via a new node in the Passage hub, offering modified rules and increased difficulty. The update is currently available for all existing owners of the game.
