Zeno Rush mode lets players compete against themselves and each other (via online leaderboards) in trying to complete select scenarios from the single-player campaign in the shortest times possible. With the focus being on speed and efficiency, mastery of the game's sophisticated melee combat system and the various special moves at the player's disposal is critical. The addition of the Timehammer, a new weapon with the ability to shave seconds off a player's Zeno Rush time, adds a fun new element to the visceral battles Zeno Clash is known for.
