Bang-On Balls: Chronicles Receives Roman Baths Update

The cheekily titled Bang-On Balls: Chronicles has been making a splash on Steam ever since its Early Access release at the start of March. The game, which is a 3D platforming title with a collect-a-thon spin, has also been receiving regular updates. Along with the usual hotfixes, there have also been some themed updates and events, such as the Limited St. Patrick’s Event and Easter Update. The latest major update, which was released today, adds a whole new area in the Viking Age level.

Titled, the Roman Baths, this update is a little more extensive than just new items or timed challenges. Although the developers are currently working on an entirely new level for the game they felt that there was still a little more that could be squeezed out of the existing map, hence the Roman Baths. According to Exit Plan Games, at least two brave balls playing the game are required to access the new area and there’s plenty to do down there. In addition to new mechanics and new items, the area is also home to a new challenge and maybe even a brand new boss. Players who conquer the Roman Baths will be rewarded with some new items to play with too.

The Roman Baths update is absolutely free to all owners of Bang-on Balls: Chronicles. For those yet to experience the game check out the trailer below and head over to the Steam store to purchase yourself a copy. It features co-op with up to three friends and while only the first complete level is available in the Early Access version there will be more (slightly inaccurate) historical themed levels added to the game before the full release.
