WILD METAMORPHOSIS PREVIEW #1

The biggest update to Nova Drift is coming soon... September 30th to be exact!

WILD METAMORPHOSIS is a brand new challenge mode, and adds 24 new & rarely-appearing mods to the pool that do extreme and unpredictable things. We've posted a bit about them before, and now we're going to start rolling out previews of them one by one.

The first one is Death Blossom - which fires your weapon in a radial spray on shield-break:
