We interrupt your daily flight to bring you a new patch. This patch adds the second part of Hel's Fighters. To access this content, just load your old Hel's Fighters save file, or play the mode from the start.

Part 2 includes Days 5-8, and opens up the possibility of unlocking and using the rest of the ships available in the game. If you wanted to play the Arrow D, Templar, and/or Bomber, now's your chance! You can also get the weapon modifications for the Gladiator and the Siren!

As a quick reminder, only the first part will be available in the Demo version of the game. Parts 2 and 3 are only available in the full version. However, it will be kept updated with any balance or pricing changes that are made

Lastly, some crash errors, map bugs, and a visual mishap with the inventory were addressed. Should you spot anything that feels out of place, feel free to report them to the support address, [b]lmg3864games@gmail.com[/b], or leave a comment in this post.

4. Extract the game files inside the new folder.
