A new update was released and is now live in Metroid Dread on Nintendo switch, making it game version 2.1.0. This is quite exciting for the game fans as three different modes have been added. They are Boss Rush, Dread Rush, and Survival Rush. These three modes are different variations on a similar theme, thereby facilitating players for taking on games varied bosses but in specific situations. Furthermore, those searching for something new for doing in the game add an extra layer of challenges.
Three varied boss rush modes have been added to the game. It would help if you pressed the R button on the ” Samus Files” screen for moving to the Boss Rush selection screen.
Boss Rush
- A mode where the players can fight 12 consistent boss battles and then makes an aim for the best time
- If any destruction occurs, it is carried into the next fight. All weapons are restored in between the battles.
- If Samus got defeated, players could select “Retry “to continue playing from the beginning of the battle they had lost. There might be some time penalty for being defeated.
- Bosses who fought in Boss Rush can fight one on one anytime by choosing the ” practice” option.
Survival Rush
- It’s a mode that makes players know about the number of players that can defeat in a five-minute time limit.
- All damages and weapons are carried over to the next battle game. Even if the player has not crossed the time limit and Samus is defeated, the game is over.
- Beating a boss adds a fixed amount of time to the countdown clock. So if you want some big-time bonus, you can defeat a boss without obtaining any damage.
- Unlock survival rush by completing Dread Rush or Boss rush.
Dread Rush
- All basic rules to follow here are the same as in Boss Rush, but when Samus hits Samus, the energy level drops to zero, and she gets defeated.
- Bosses fighting in a Dread rush can fight one on one by choosing “Practice”.
- Unlock by defraying the main game utilizing Dread mode.
All these three new modes are available for free. Although it’s not clear if developer Mercury System is planning to add something new to the game, it seems possible because of the high sales of Metroid Dread since it was launched last year. As of now, you have to wait and see.
