Capes Gets Four New Levels in Free Update: Superhero Strategy Game Expands
Capes, a turn-based superhero tactics game that has made a splash this year, has received a free update that adds four new missions to its already impressive roster. The game, which borrows elements from the popular XCOM formula, has been praised for its distinctive style and engaging gameplay.
With its cast of eight quippy superheroes and comic book aesthetic, Capes offers a light-hearted take on the genre, contrasting with the darker tone of its rival, Marvel's Midnight Suns. The game unravels a narrative about the heroes' secret identities, the origins of their powers, and the purge of superheroes at the hands of a villainous cabal.
While its visuals may not be groundbreaking, Capes boasts deep strategic gameplay, particularly in the later stages when the full roster of superheroes is available. Although our review highlighted some drawbacks, the game's gameplay was generally praised for its enjoyment factor.
The new Holo Danger update brings a significant addition to the game's content, offering four new levels that provide even more strategic challenges for players who have already completed the base campaign. These new missions feature a unique "escalation" mechanic for skilled players, introducing a higher difficulty level upon meeting specific combat criteria.
This update expands the total number of missions in Capes to 40, providing a significant amount of content for fans to delve into. The Holo Danger update is available now for all players, free of charge.
