This update, which is free to all owners of Resogun, lays the ground work for the forthcoming Heroes expansion due next week, which will expand your Resogun experience with new modes, game worlds and more.

In addition to getting you ready for Heroes, we wanted to give everyone something extra to thank you for the amazing support and reception you’ve shown Resogun since release. The guys at Housemarque and us here at XDEV Studio Europe were amazed by the reaction to the game — thank you all so much for getting behind the game.

With that in mind, alongside lots of tweaks, improvements and bug fixes, this free update contains a few special treats from us:

Ship Editor
One of the more requested features we’ve seen since the world got a look at “dem voxels” is the ability to create your own ship. Housemarque listened and created a fully featured Ship Editor for you to play with as part of this free update!
Click to expand...
Design your own ship from the ground up using a detailed voxel editor. Position the afterburners and weapons, set your own attributes to govern the ships agility, boost and overdrive, and choose either of the standard weapon sets for your ride. Want a flying DeLorean with the agility of the Nemesis but Ferox’s firepower? Go right ahead!

But that’s not all… what’s a ship editor if you can’t show off your custom rides? We went one step further and fully connected the editor online. Share and download ships from your friends, rivals and the community at large, and try out new ships to see what gives you the edge on the leaderboards.

Local Co-op
Another much-requested feature is local co-op; the good folks at Housemarque have heard you, and they’ve added that to the expansion too.

Moar Trophies

We love a good Trophy set, and we’re really proud that so many of you achieved the Platinum after the game launched. We worked long and hard to make a set that was challenging yet attainable, and we’re thrilled that for many players, Resogun was their first PS4 Platinum.

Because we like Trophies (and because we like to spoil you), we’ve added more of them to not only the forthcoming expansion, but also to this free update!

This is another great reason to come back to the game and improve your score. Again, these have been designed to make you play with the new additions to the game. While challenging, they should be achievable for most of you with a little bit of effort, but if you need a little help we’ll be back in a week or two with an exclusive Trophy guide for both the Heroes Expansion and the Update, created by one of our very own QA team. Keep your eyes on the Blog for that in the near future.

Hall of Fame
With that in mind we’re left with little option but to clear the leaderboards and start fresh alongside the release of this update. That being said, we didn’t want players’ superhuman efforts to be forgotten, so we’ve added a Hall of Fame Leaderboard to immortalize the original Resogun Heroes. All scores in the Main Hero difficulty leaderboard will be forever displayed here to show future generations the level of skill (and in some cases sneakiness) that was shown by our community in the early months of Resogun.

I know it would defeat the purpose of DLC, but if there was a level editor as well this would probably be my go to game for the next couple months.
 
Awesome update for an awesome game. When the PS4 came out, for the first week, this was the game that took up most of my play time.
 
The full Heroes expansion is hitting in July isn't it?

Pretty cool this free DLC is hitting already. Can't wait to play around with the editor.
 
This is how you support a game before releasing DLC... Free update to get people back into the game, which should help DLC sales.
 
Even saying they'll release a trophy guide from someone on their QA team is a small touch that makes the company amazing. Can't wait to try the ship editor.
 
Hopefully the expansion is adding more ships for the user to choose from, which translates to more weapon loadout choices for the custom ships. I'm a bit tired of the 3 weapon choices, though it will be interesting to have a fast moving ship that can boost all the time with a mega-cannon on the front that drops bosses quick...
 
Awesome game. Probably won't go back to it unless I clea my backlog this summer, or my boy comes back from Thailand for some local coop. PEACE.

It's funny I was just playing this game early this week remember why it's so awesome. It's only gonna get better.

EDIT: This kind of Update is Valve like in its generosity. A rare sight in the modern age of Ubisoft/EA DLC minefields.
 
Yesssssssss, had no idea about this update. After BF4's failure to launch, upon finishing Shadowfall and AC4 my PS4 was a Resogun machine for much longer than it should have been. Can't wait to jump back in.
 
How is the freedom in ship editor going to be balanced against leaderboards?

Sounds like you can spend a certain amount of points on the three characteristics of a ship, but I wonder if ship size affects gameplay.

Excited for trophies and new modes, hoping the future update/DLC has new enemies/worlds.
 
Sounds like a great update, and one that will bring me back to Resogun for a bit. Never did finish it - the last mission just gets too damn hectic for me - still a fun time though.

I would've played more of the co-op, but the shared pool of lives always meant one of us got killed and had to just watch the other one play all the way through the rest of the level. Some way to revive or bring a fallen player back in would've kept this game in our co-op rotation. Dead Nation has the same problem. Nobody wants to be on the sidelines for extended periods. Maybe there's something in these new modes to help out with that.

How does the new local co-op work? Split-screen I guess?
 
The fact that the leaderboards are going to be resetted because of some tiny exploits is great.
The fact that the old leaderboards will be kept for the future for everyone to see is awesome.

I am currently trying to climb up the ladder on the Veteran difficulty and even knowing that it will be resetted I still have tons of fun trying to deliver humans 2 or 3 at a time for maximum boost or keeping the multiplier up all the time.

Awesome game.
