Old-school arena shooter ‘Reflex Arena’ blasts out of Early Access next week

Turbo Pixel is excited to announce that their 1990s-style first-person arena shooter Reflex Arena will end its early access period and launch March 8th on PC. This release will be accompanied by a host of new and upgraded content and features.

Reflex Arena is a fast-paced and highly competitive shooter that merges the latest gaming technology with the speed, precision, and freedom of a genre classic. If you sank countless hours into Quake III Arena or Unreal Tournament, Reflex Arena will be a welcome return to that style of lightning-fast, free-flowing twitch gameplay.

After two years in Steam early access, Reflex Arena is currently riding a wave of very positive user feedback from more than a thousand reviews. During this period Turbo Pixel delivered over 30 major updates, expanding the initial release regularly with new features and content.

The official release on March 8 will bring many new features to the game, including:

Bots: Skilled and adaptable AI-controlled opponents will allow players to learn the basics, train up their skills and play solo.

Seasons and leaderboards: Competitive season one will begin on March 8 and will include a new competitive points system and championship leaderboard.

Gameplay rewards: The new competitive points system will allow players to earn points in ranked matches against other players that can be used to purchase items to personalize your character.
