“2 Minutes in Space” Brings Chaos with Bad Santa in New Xmas Update

The holidays just got a high-octane twist as Rarepixels launches an exciting Christmas-themed update for 2 Minutes in Space, their popular mobile arcade game. Available now on both Android and iOS, this update introduces a mischievous new character, Bad Santa Claus, who’s trading in his sleigh and reindeer for rockets and mayhem.

Yes, the cold, silent vacuum of space has a new kind of chaos this December, and it’s wrapped with a bow of destruction. For those unfamiliar, 2 Minutes in Space is a fast-paced survival game where players pilot a spaceship, dodging asteroids, missiles, and other perils while trying to stay alive as long as possible. It’s deceptively simple but endlessly challenging, and this latest update promises to add a festive edge to the action.

Meet Bad Santa: The New Cosmic Menace

The highlight of the Xmas update is, without a doubt, the introduction of Bad Santa. Decked out in tattered red-and-white space gear with a devilish grin, this renegade Santa doesn’t deliver gifts—he delivers chaos. Players can encounter him during gameplay, and with his unpredictable attacks and explosive tactics, Bad Santa adds another layer of adrenaline to an already intense experience.

But that’s not all. Rarepixels has included a lineup of holiday-themed content to complement your cosmic adventures. Expect new visuals that sprinkle a touch of Christmas spirit across the game, from snowy asteroid belts to glowing holiday lights nestled into the black backdrop of space. There’s even seasonal music to keep you in a festive (albeit nerve-wracking) mood while dodging certain doom.

Tips for Surviving the Festive Chaos

With greater challenges come greater opportunities to refine your survival strategies. Here are a few tips to help you conquer the holiday havoc:
1. Predict Enemy Movements: Bad Santa’s attacks are erratic, but paying attention to his approach patterns can give you the edge you need to dodge his rockets and other surprises.
2. Upgrade Your Ship: Take advantage of customization options to power up your ship. Enhanced speed, maneuverability, and shields will give you a fighting chance against the heightened intensity.
3. Keep Moving: Staying still is a surefire way to end your run early. Continuously adjust your trajectory and use quick bursts of speed to evade incoming threats.
4. Use the Edges:

The screen edges can sometimes work to your advantage, especially when trying to quickly reposition yourself out of harm’s way. Just be careful not to get cornered!

A Game That Keeps on Giving

Rarepixels has a knack for delivering updates that feel purposeful and fun, and this Xmas-themed addition is no different. The game’s blend of rapid decision-making, precision controls, and now a touch of dark holiday humor makes it a standout in the mobile arcade genre. Whether you’re a seasoned 2 Minutes in Space player or jumping in for the first time, this update makes the game feel fresh, chaotic, and wildly entertaining.

If you’re ready to test your skills in the void, head over to the App Store for iPhone and iPad or grab it on Google Play for Android. You can also check out Rarepixels’ official YouTube channel and Twitter for updates, gameplay tips, and more.
