Odyssey Interactive has kicked out Omega Strikers update 3.00 this August 24 for the game’s Season 2: Summer Splash content drop! Read on for what’s new in the official Omega Strikers Season 2 patch notes.

Omega Strikers Update 3.00 Patch Notes | Omega Strikers Season 2 Patch Notes:

WELCOME TO OMEGA STRIKERS 3.0.

Our fattest update yet, this patch features a TON of stuff. A CRAZY new striker, two crazy new maps, a new Striker Pass, new skins, and of course, AN ENTIRE VISUAL NOVEL. RIGHT THERE. IN THE GAME.
With great changes comes great patch notes, so let’s jump right into it. There’s A LOT.

Yeah, you read that correctly. There’s an ENTIRE VISUAL NOVEL now in Omega Strikers for Summer Splash.
Head to the beach with Asher, Juno, Estelle, X, Juliette, or Dubu! Progress through the event, hang out with your new friends, get to know them better, and unlock new stuff in game! There’s even missions for you to complete, some of which will even grant you fresh new titles and emotes!

• We have a brand new map that’s incredibly interactive and breaks the boundaries of our previous designs! It’s always summer at Inky’s Splash Zone, always wild, and everyone is always prone to getting SOAKED. When you take down a barrier on this map, the corner without the barrier turns into a KO zone and gives your team access to a water blaster that’ll knock enemies into the deep end.

• The Gates of Obscura take us in a different direction than the fun-loving Splash Zone. Here, we’ll explore the depths of the void and source of Rune’s power. The portals on the map will possibly get you turned-around and upside-down, but once you master them, you can melt the brains of your enemies and dominate the map. There’s crazy new angles on this map and things will get even spicier in Overtime, so keep your head on a swivel.

• Rotated Out: Ahten City and Demon Dais will have their places taken by the new maps: Inky’s Splash Zone and Gates of Obscura.
• Maps’ Chance to Roll: Historically it’s been completely equal, but for the first weekend, Inky’s Splash Zone will have a higher chance to appear! We’ll probably highlight Gates of Obscura down the road as well!

• Recast abilities now have a slightly different icon background color when they’re reactivatable. Applies to:
  • Ai.Mi’s PRIMARY
  • Era’s SPECIAL
  • Finii’s SPECIAL
  • Rasmus’s SECONDARY
  • Vyce’s SECONDARY
  • X’s STRIKE

• It’s (soft) reset time! Congratulations on your climb for this season. We hope you climbed to where you wanted and didn’t tilt into oblivion. Let’s see what new heights you can soar to in Season 2!
  • Almost everyone will end up in silver or below, with the highest ranks (challenger and above) resetting to gold or platinum.

Yeah there’s A LOT OF NEW SKINS. Some in the shop, some in the Striker Pass!
