Resogun is all set to receive a new expansion next week with Heroes, but before that, you can look forward to local co-op support being added to the game this weekend. You’ll have also receive a ship editor, which should allow you to finally bring your bizarre and unholy creations to life (within Resogun that is).

The upcoming patch will also include more Trophies in the experience along with a reset of the leaderboards. Those players who managed to achieve the top spots before will be added to a new Hall of Fame leaderboard that will showcase all the high scores before the reset. It also seems that many exploits discovered earlier will have been neutralized with the new patch so you’ll need to find new ways to get those high scores.

You can check out more information on the patch over at the PlayStation Blog, courtesy of Housemarque. Meanwhile, Resogun: Heroes will release for the PS4 next week and retail for $5.

According to TVLine, Microsoft wants to relaunch the series with new stories and characters featuring cameos from the original cast members. As of now talks are in the preliminary stage but we can’t imagine that having former NBC development executive Jada Miranda on board – who’s been overseeing production on the Xbox entertainment studio along with ex-CBS president Nancy Tellem since this past February – wasn’t a big factor in said talks.

But is the series ready to make a comeback? Despite being a relatively hot property when release, Heroes declined irreversibly over the years before finally ending in February 2010. Maybe time has healed all wounds? Stay tuned for further details.
