Unlike the main campaign, there’s no danger of losing your multiplier should fail to strike a target – not that the screen will ever be empty enough for you to miss. As you progress, bridges will fall and the number of enemies will increase, making it harder to hang on. Instead, emerald inmates will parachute down from the top of the screen with much more regularity, and you’ll need to collect them in order to unlock various power-ups, be they all-important shields, weapon upgrades, or more. The twist here is that the gameplay has been completely stripped back to its very basics, with the captive humans and collectors loop removed entirely. Survival is arguably the meatier of the two, limiting you – as you’d probably anticipate – to a single life. Straightforward in name only, these actually offer sizeable twists on the twin-stick shooter’s established format – and give the core campaign a run for its hard-earned cash. So what are these new modes, then? Well, the Heroes pack adds two new entries to the single player portion of the release’s main menu: Survival and Demolition. We actually found ourselves plumping up for the former during our time with the title’s debut downloadable content, but aficionados of other formats may feel more at home with one of the many plagiarised options on offer. These custom creations can then be shared online a la ModNation Racers, and the results are already impressive from Flappy Bird to Stephen Hawkings, there’s a pixelated ship to suit all tastes. Incorporating an oft-requested local co-op mode, the complimentary content’s headline addition is the vaunted vessel editor, allowing you to arrange your own vibrant voxels in order to create a Ferox or Phobos of your very own.

To begin, we’d be remiss if we were to overlook the fact that this add-on comes hand-in-hand with a free update, which everyone can access right now. For as exceptional as the core gameplay remains, though, there are only so many times that you can save the last humans – and that’s where the title’s first major expansion pack Heroes comes in.

That’s not a slight against the software library that Sony’s next-gen system has amassed over the past six months or so – although we’re sure that many would like to take it that way – but more a testament to just how good the arcade launch title is. It’s a statement that’s rapidly approaching cliché territory, but Housemarque’s cylindrical shooter Resogun is still the PlayStation 4’s best game.
