New Iron Meat Update Offers Even More to Sink Your Teeth Into

After Iron Meat hit the gaming world by storm last September, the minds at Retroware have been busy concocting plans for exciting new updates to add even more layers to this modern take on retro gaming!

Now, Xbox players have a fresh batch of content to explore with the rollout of the first major update, promising to add more thrill to your gameplay.

### Mirror, Mirror

Players have been clamoring for new features, and one of them is finally here: Mirror Mode. This unique option lets you tackle all levels from a different angle – literally! Moving left through stages instead of the usual right turns your familiar enemies and bosses into a brand new challenge. Unlocking this twist is simple; just beat the game on any difficulty, and you’re in!

### Red Rapid Fire

Level up your weapons with the introduction of the Supercharge upgrade, the latest enhancement to your armory. When you activate this “third” tier upgrade, all your bullets will shine red, regardless of their prior colors. So, if you’ve maxed out one or two of your weapons already, picking up a third of the same will automatically give you this supercharged boost, complete with vibrant red projectiles.

### My 1UPs, Thank You

Here’s a bit of news you’ll love: with this update, any extra lives you earn are now yours to keep as you progress. So if you finish a level with more lives than you started, consider it a gift that keeps on giving as you move forward!

### Visual Enhancements to Level Backgrounds

We’re not just offering gameplay tweaks; we’ve sprinkled some new magic onto the level backdrops. These updates aim to deepen the narrative around Iron Meat’s unfolding story. Keep your eyes peeled for subtle yet powerful additions like helicopter shootouts with Meat monsters, new spikes on mid-level bosses, and pilots making an appearance in the ending credits. Plus, get ready for those impactful Meat meteor strikes on the Train level!

### Other Updates

While we’ve squashed a few lingering bugs in the code, that’s not all. Expect to see:

– Enhanced damage from the “E,” “U,” and “M” guns.
– More Meat-packed areas in the Moon Base.
– Clearer patterns in the MI-24 helicopter boss battles.
– And for a smoother experience, some sections of levels are now more forgiving, like instantly killable Meat worms and doors.

This update is just the beginning. We’re thrilled about the future of Iron Meat and the upcoming additions we have planned. Dive back into this fast-paced, run-and-gun shooter that mixes arcade nostalgia with hardcore action. Available now for $19.99, Iron Meat invites you to a grim battle against The Meat – a monstrous, all-consuming biomass intent on domination. So pick your favorite skin and team up with a friend for some couch co-op mayhem. Get ready to skillfully navigate bullet-drenched arenas and monstrous bosses, proving your mettle in this nostalgic, hardcore journey!
