What ho, adventurers! Have you been plumbing the depths of forbidden tombs with your best buddies in Strange Brigade? If so, you may be interested to know that a new character is available to play (free for Season Pass holders and not free otherwise), as well as new maps for the Score Attack and Horde modes (all free).
It's been awhile since we've looked at Sloclap's third-person action/fighting title, Absolver. The French developer has continued to support and update the game since its launch on the PC and PlayStation 4 with tweaks, balances, and a new 3v3 PvP mode, but the PvE content has still been lacking. However, there is some good news. A new PvE dungeon will arrive in just a couple weeks and it will be free for everyone.
In a recent video, Gears for Breakfast announced that the PC version of their 3D platforming title, A Hat In Time, will be getting the first of two planned DLC packs soon, and alongside that, a free update that lets you play the entire campaign in split-screen co-op! Both of these will be available on September 13th, and while it sounds like the co-op will always be free for players, the “Seal the Deal” DLC will be free on release day, with the price rising to $4.99 after that.
The final bit of planned/announced DLC for Far Cry 5 will arrive next Tuesday, August 28. "Dead Living Zombies" will let you and your co-op buddy take on a bunch of undead in a variety of familiar movie settings.
The last time we heard from Undead Labs about State of Decay 2, they were releasing some 4th of July themed weapons and zombies into the game. At the same time, they provided a rough outline of what was next for the zombie-survival game; specifically, DLC that would add a new co-op mode to the game. On Tuesday, they revealed that "Daybreak" will be arriving September 12 and will let four players team up to fight off waves of zombies.
During this year's E3, Ubisoft revealed the next big content update for their action fighting game, For Honor. At the time, the biggest reveal was a new PvP mode (Breach) and a new playable faction, the Chinese. They teased a new PvE mode, but didn't state what that might be. Yesterday, at Gamescom, they finally pulled back the curtain on that mode: 2 player Arcade co-op.
Fatshark's Warhammer: Vermintide 2 has been doing quite well for itself since it launched last March on the PC, and just last month on the Xbox One. If you've been enjoying teaming up with your buddies to slay Skaven and the hordes of Chaos, but want to visit a new locale, then you're in luck. "Shadows over Bogenhafen" arrives on August 28 and... well, actually, that's just about all we know.
Spacehulk: DeathWing is getting some DLC today on the PC, with the PS4 version getting its DLC in the coming days. The content is in the form of a new map, Infested Mines, playable in Solo Special Missions and the game's four player online Co-op mode. The focus here is more verticality, with twisting underground caverns and corridors which promises to "strike a balance between terrifying claustrophobia and wide-open battlefields."
The latest addition to Dungeon Defenders II is now available across Xbox One, PS4 and PC for everyone’s favorite price of free. The Protean Shift Expansion adds new weapons, the ability to keep weapons longer thanks to expanded upgrade tiers, the ability to further customize your gear with over 120 new mods, and two new game modes: Adventures and Expeditions.
Undead Labs is getting into the 4th of July spirit a little early with the Independence Pack for State of Decay 2. The DLC is currently available for both the Xbox One and Windows 10 versions of the game and if, like me, you're into driving around in vehicles opening doors, then this pack adds to the excitement with the introduction of new cars like "The Meatwagon" and "The Burninator."
