Super Hexagon Gets A 60 FPS 2.0 Update On iOS
Terry Cavanagh's hard to play, even harder to put down 2012 mobile hit, Super Hexagon, recently receieved a free 2.0 update.
The 2.0 update gives the game a new engine which makes it run smoother, and look a lot sharper. The game now has retina display support on iOS and runs at 60 FPS. It's unclear if the update is heading to other platforms like Android at this time.

Our Take
I got into some furious high-score battling with Game Informer editors shortly after the release of Super Hexagon. For a brief shining moment, I even held the highest, until former editor Dan Ryckert and Tim Turi quickly bested me. It was a wonderful couple of hours and I will always remember it fondly. Now seems like a great time to revisit the game.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
