If it is the looter-shooter genre that you find yourself totally immersed in, captivated by min-maxing your weapons like there’s no tomorrow, then you’ve likely given Vigor Chronicles a go. This free-to-play survival shooter is a gritty game that takes no prisoners, and will have you sweating it out against likeminded players. The latest free update to Vigor Chronicles is Damnation, returning the game to a military theme, following on from previous expansions like Absolution.
Boots on the Ground
Developers Bohemia Interactive recognise that, for a while now, fans of Vigor Chronicles have been begging for a return of a military-based setting for the game’s new season. Antonis Dimosthenous – Marketing Specialist in the team – had this to say on the new season:
It’s true that the military theme is always a fan favourite within our community. And it’s been a while since we did a proper military themed season. I think the last time we had a military-inspired Battle Pass was for Chronicles: Salvation so yeah, it was time we brought it back.
So, with this in mind, what can Vigor Chronicles players expect when they jump into the Damnation update on August 9th?
Key Features
