Update Contents
Addition of New Mode: "Boss Rush Challenge"
What is "Boss Rush Challenge"?
This is a mode where players use armies raised in PATAPON 1 and PATAPON 2 to defeat consecutive bosses.
- This mode can only be played using save data after clearing the main scenario.
- The number and strength of bosses that appear vary with each stage.
- The bosses will appear at random, testing your skill as a deity.
- The HP and survival status of your army will be carried over throughout the same stage.
Patapon whose HP reaches 0 will fall in battle without dropping a cap. - Patapon will recover a fixed amount of HP each battle.
Units in reserve will recover more HP than units participating in battle.
Hatapon, as an exception, will recover full HP each battle. - Upon clearing a stage, your army will return to the status from the beginning of the Boss Rush Challenge, with HP fully restored and units fully revived.
It is only after clearing a stage that play data can be saved.
(Save data can only be created once each for PATAPON 1 and PATAPON 2.) - Players restart from the last save point after experiencing a Game Over. Aim to clear each stage!
Occurrences within this mode such as losing Patapon or consuming items do not affect the main scenario, so have fun and don't be afraid to give it your all!!
