14 DAY TRIAL // The team in charge of Sonic Lost World announces that it is delivering an update for the Wii U version of the game, which is designed to improve a number of gameplay mechanics and grant an extra life when the player collects 100 rings.
The list of changes includes, according to the official announcement:
Collecting 100 rings will now grant the player an extra life. In the event of a Game Over, we have doubled the amount of lives the player will begin with when continuing. (From 5 to 10) The Indigo Asteroid, Crimson Eagle, Orange Rocket, and Black Bomb Color Powers can now be controlled using the analog stick and buttons. Fixed a rare graphical issue that would sometimes appear during the pinball section of the Frozen Factory casino area.
Gamers who also have the Nightmare DLC package will be notified that they can replay it after scoring 100,000 points and all items should now be present on the world map.
The team also thanks fans of Sonic Lost World for the feedback they have offered and says that more changes might be implemented in the future.
The title is SEGA’s latest attempt to make its iconic character relevant again, but the game failed to generate huge sales when it was released.
