Xotic, le titre qui mêle des mécaniques de FPS couplées à un système de scoring récemment testé dans nos colonnes vient d'accueillir un gros patch. Ce dernier ajoute un tutoriel, trois nouveaux modes de jeu (Scab Attack, dans lequel vous devez détruire toutes les plantes d'un niveau le plus rapidement possible ; Orb Attack, dans lequel vous devez détruire tous les cerveaux de l'Orb le plus rapidement possible ; Essence Attack, dans lequel vous devez collecter toutes les essences d'Orb le plus rapidement possible), de nouveaux succès et le support pour des DLC. Cette rustine corrige également quelques bugs assez mineurs.

Comme d'habitude avec Steam, le patch sera effectif au prochain lancement du client. La liste complète des changements se trouve dans la suite de la nouvelle.
