Bursting with customizable mech-inspired ships, Strike Vector EX disrupts the air combat genre through a combination of precision mechanics, imaginative aircraft, and stunning, fast-paced multiplayer fights.

First introduced on Steam PC in 2014 as a multiplayer-only game, the revamped console version completes the studio’s vision by creating refined controls that enable players to maneuver their mech-craft like a pro to complement the dangerously-quick multiplayer dogfights.

Strike Vector EX delivers a new story-driven single-player campaign complete with characters, cut scenes, deadly AI, customizable Vectors, and, most notably, a substantial online multiplayer mode.

RageQuit Corporation went live today with a significant update to its PS4 aerial-combat title, Strike Vector EX, to create a more dynamic, exciting, and balanced multiplayer experience for hungry aerial combat pilots.

To improve multiplayer matchmaking, RageQuit has reduced the number of player difficulty ranks and fixed the repartition system, among other balancing upgrades to each of its weapons, to make for a smoother, faster, and more competitive experience. By reducing the number of matchmaking difficulty ranks from 10 to four, gamers will find human players more frequently. And, by fixing the repartition system, human players will be evenly dispatched.

The full list of upgrades and balancing items are below:

• Weapons/Special Actions balancing:
  • Gatling : Range + Hit damage tuning
  • Swarms : Lock + Damage tuning
  • Carabine : Detonation distance tuning
