Serious Sam 2 Update 2.90 Patch Notes

• Sam can now wield a brand new weapon called the BeamGun (aka The Ghost Buster from the original Serious Sam design document)
• Enemy multiplier option is now available in singleplayer and co-op. Go, create your own Legion System in Serious Sam 2.
• Duke it out on 12 previously unreleased multiplayer maps, coming to you straight from the dusty basement at Croteam HQ. Those include Yodeller, Stadium, Hole, Desert Temple, and more.
• A brand new Flame-Thrower weapon is now available to all you modders out there, and so is the napalm item, so you can feed it.
• Sam finally learned to dual wield all of his toys. That’s pretty cool if I do say so myself.
