Awesomenauts Assemble! - Update 1.6 Out Now
The latest update for Awesomenauts Assemble! is now live and you Xbox One fans can check out what is new. The new update contains a brand new character called Ix the Interloper.
The new character was designed in cooperation with the Awesomenauts community and is said to be one of the most unique Awesomenauts in ther line-up. Ix the Interloper is a character who can bond with other characters and swap places with them, allowing Ix to move friendly ‘Nauts out of harm’s way and opponents out of position. To complement this ability, Ix is also able to assume an ethereal form that renders the character invulnerable for a short period of time.
On top of being designed by the Awesomenauts community during a Design-a-Naut contest, Ix even has a theme song produced by community member MrMacke, who has been making acapella covers of Awesomenauts song for years.
In addition, the dev-team is adding Assists in the update to reward players for participating in team takedowns, and are addressing a lot of small issues to improve the overall user experience. This is the first update we’ve released for the Xbox One version since the game launched in September, and it’s noted that the dev-team is also fixing some platform-specific issues players encountered there, including some problems with Achievements!
They are currently working on a new character called Max Focus, and he’ll be included in the next update for consoles and fans can expect to see the release of that update early next year.
The full patch notes for the update are available HERE.
