Daily challenges: a new run every day

Dead Mileage now has daily challenges. Every day there's a new, hand-made run on the main menu: the same road, the same vehicle and the same rules for everyone. Then it's down to how you drive.

A different run every day

Each challenge sets the vehicle, the guns, the crew, the gear, the difficulty and sometimes the rules themselves: more monsters, tougher monsters, or kills that pay double or barely at all. A few of what's coming up:

• Ice Cream Apocalypse (Thu 22 Oct): a hard road, a slow van and a flamethrower. The chimes bring them running.
• School Run (Fri 23 Oct): a full bus, two guns and twice the horde.
• Glass Cannon (Sat 24 Oct): a maxed railgun on the Rustbucket. Everything dies in one shot, including you.
• Night of the Hearse (Halloween): the dead are out in force, but they pay well.
• And easy Sundays, power-trip Fridays, hard Saturdays, and something special for Friday the 13th.

Today's is The First Challenge: an easy road and a hearse with two machine guns. A gentle start.

Beat your friends

• Find the DAILY card on the main menu and hit Drive it. The card shows the day's full loadout, and your best result so far today.
• When your run ends, the end screen shows how you did and a Copy challenge link button. Send the link to a friend and they get exactly the same run to beat.
• Try as often as you like. Your best of the day is kept, and the next day brings a new one.

Fair for everyone

Challenge runs ignore your workshop upgrades, so nobody starts ahead. In return they don't pay scrap or count towards your records. Achievements still unlock, except on some days with especially generous loadouts; the menu card says when.

See you on the road.
