Overkill 3 gets updated with cloud saves and some bug fixing

last updated

Overkill is a new title for Windows Phone that made it to the app store only last month, but the developer today pushed out an update to introduce cloud saves and fix some bugs.

The Xbox Live-enabled third-person shooter is by the same studio that brought the platform Make it Rain. There's a lot of action, weapon upgrades and neat graphics on offer. Here's the changelog for version 1.1:

  • Add system notifications for items delivery
  • Add cloud save system for Xbox Live users
  • Fix delivery time bug
  • Fix graphic bugs

Unfortunately, as we noted in previous coverage, Overkill 3 does not support hardware with 512MB at this point in time.

  • And Overkill3 for Windows 8 may be coming later this month, and will be Universal with cross-save for users that enable that option.
  • Have to say GT are fast becoming one of my fave devs. Love TT and MIR and looking for to this too. Re cloud save, a defo needed feature, far too many times ive lost game saves when I had to reset phone. MS should make this mandatory for all games, give devs access to Azure for free.

  • Need cloud save for all games, either in Xbox or OneDrive, and the ability to remove save game.
  • I spent $15 on in app purchases only to have all my progress reset. I contacted support to see if they could refund the $15. They said the problem should be fixed with this update and that there was no possible way for them to refund the money. Glad to see the cloud save function has been added. Did this happen to anyone else?
  • It says not available for you device. I have Lumia 930. Region is India!! Please help guys!
