By entering a black hole she is suddenly miles from home and locked up in a facility where she is studied by aliens called Vokh.
The black hole has also altered her characteristics, introducing many bio-mechanical changes.
With the help of a character called Hjun Ralan III who works at the space station where is interrogated, she manages to escape.
She needs to find a way back and Ralan hopes she will also free his people from the Vokh oppression.
The game combines two very different types of gameplay.
The first type of level is a top-down shooter with puzzle elements controlling her Quarp Jet.
These sections are similar to the gameplay of the previous games.
Rather than a pure shoot'em up it focuses on the ship's movement, combined with rescuing survivors, shooting enemies and obstacles using a pulse cannon, dropping strategic bombs, solving small puzzles for instance based on switches, and using the series' trademark teleportation technique to quickly hop between fenced off areas.
There is also a powerful boost function to move quickly as getting a very fast time is rewarded.
On the other hand there are 2D side-scrolling platforming sections that are an entirely new element for the series.
They are accessed by docking during the top-down flying sections, briefly solving a puzzle to remove a barrier for instance, but they can also form entire levels.
Just like the flying sections these levels focus on quick movement and also incorporate teleportation through the ability to launch telepods and a very quick teledash.
In the side-scrolling levels Kai Tana can run, jump, glide, collect rekenium shards and needs to avoid dangerous surfaces.
While running she can shoot in any direction.
Both types of levels have multiple checkpoints.

About Nintendo Switch
Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.
Gamevaro tracks Velocity 2X for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Velocity 2X to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NSW release dates back to 2014.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Velocity 2X has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
