Introduction

Attention all staff. This is a company-wide memo. All employees are directed to raise a glass, clap their hands, and generally make merry as Kakao Games and Ocean Drive Studio’s new sci-fi twin-stick shooter Section 13 is gearing up for bigger and better things!

Staff are reminded that Section 13, formerly known as Blackout Protocol, is a roguelite shooter now packed to the brim with high-intensity action, interdimensional terrors, and plenty of young graduates ready to risk it all for the chance of a promotion. And, to HR’s great delight, there are no unions in sight to stop this update from rolling out!

Details & Information

Teamwork makes the dream work. With the relaunch of co-op mode, players can now sacrifice three employees in one round for maximum efficiency. Prefer working solo? Single player mode is still available, with an ever-expanding narrative thoroughly vetted by the S2P legal team (legal approval pending).

Please regard our latest visual representation of the joy to be had here:

Additional Insights

The company facilities have also received an overhaul. Ignore any rumors that cosmic horrors have spread to the shiny new Laboratory, Quarantine Chamber, or the experimental procedural generation level for overachievers. The horrors have not spread. We repeat: Not. Spread.

While you may not have gotten that end-of-year promotion, the enemies definitely did! They’ve grown bigger and better, and our overworked S2P employees will need new tools to keep up. Enter: the Energy Shield and Turret — your new horror-repelling best friends.

And for those craving mental stimulation, boost your brain with 20 new Synaptic Enhancements. Brain blast guaranteed.

Conclusion

Should all else fail, fear not. Beaker has finally returned from mandatory leave and is reuniting with Scalpel, Boy Scout, and Red, completing the dream team of overworked, underpaid heroes.
