Kusan: City of Wolves Receives a Feature-Packed Free Update Available Now on Steam

(Auszug aus der Pressemitteilung)

PQube and CIRCLEfromDOT have released a feature-packed new update for their high-octane hardcore top-down shooter, Kusan: City of Wolves, available now on PC (via Steam®) and coming soon to other platforms. Building upon feedback from the community, the update introduces Standard Mode, Floor Select and a wealth of gameplay improvements, giving players greater control over their time in Kusan.

In the Kusan: City of Wolves update, players can now choose their preferred level of challenge with the introduction of Standard Mode. This new mode offers a more approachable way to experience the game’s fast-paced combat, with slower enemy attacks, more ammunition drops and rebalanced encounters. For players seeking a higher level of difficulty or the more challenging SS rank, Hard Mode keeps the game’s demanding combat, with faster enemy attacks, more challenging encounters and limited ammunition.

The update also includes Floor Select, allowing players to revisit previously unlocked starting points within stages to practice specific encounters, chase higher grades or simply replay favourite sections without the need to play through the entire stage. Improvements to the Continue feature also make for a more streamlined experience, giving players the ability to jump straight back into the action without the need to retrace their steps.

Alongside these highly requested additions, the update brings a range of further refinements, including more impactful environmental destruction, improved tutorials, visual and interface updates, combat improvements, quality-of-life enhancements and balancing adjustments.

These new updates are also available in the Kusan: City of Wolves Demo, available now on Steam®. Players can experience the game’s opening levels and, with save data carried over to the full game, continue Jin’s journey right where they left off.
