Minion Rush is about to receive what Gameloft is calling its "biggest update yet", bringing a wave of fresh content and technical upgrades that breathe new life into the long-running endless runner. This major update not only shifts the game's foundation to the Unity engine but also introduces exciting new features designed to delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike.
One of the most significant changes in this update is the transition to Unity, which ushers in a comprehensive visual refresh. The game now looks sharper and more vibrant, better reflecting the lively world of the Despicable Me universe. Alongside the graphical enhancements comes a streamlined user interface, making navigation smoother and more intuitive.
For the first time ever, players can enjoy the newly added official Endless Runner mode, accessible directly from the main menu. This fan-favorite gameplay style has been long anticipated and fits right at home within Minion Rush’s energetic pace. Enhancing the experience further are new boosters and expanded player customization options, allowing you to personalize your character with unique avatars, nicknames, and decorative frames.
Another standout addition is the Hall of Jam, a progression-focused feature that rewards players with valuable in-game items such as G-Coins, Minion stickers (used to upgrade or unlock costumes), story puzzle pieces, gadgets, and more. It’s a welcome system for those looking to dig deeper into the game’s collectibles and advancement mechanics.
Players will also find a suite of exciting new power-ups to experiment with, including:
- Disco-boot
- Bouncer
- Rocket Blade
- Minion Armor
These dynamic tools add fresh layers of strategy and fun to every run, keeping gameplay engaging and unpredictable.
If you've been waiting for a reason to jump back into Minion Rush—or if you've never left—this update delivers a compelling case to do so. With modern visuals, enhanced gameplay mechanics, and a host of new systems and items, Minion Rush proves it's still got plenty of energy left.
