Developer Rebel Developments revealed a primary take a look at Atomfall’s first DLC enlargement yesterday. Titled Depraved Isle, it unsurprisingly brings you to an island known as Midsummer Island that’s, in truth, a bit depraved, however like, within the unhealthy means, not within the one thing a teen within the 2000s would say about one thing they like sort of means. Particularly it’s going to have a bit extra of a people horror vibe to it, which I am actually into conceptually. A lot of nice folklore within the UK, so long as it isn’t stepping over often trodden upon territory.
Rebel head of design Ben Fisher explains that the island is “near the Windscale Atom Plant and consequently the degrees of an infection in each the individuals and setting are greater than on the mainland.” It will characteristic new enemies like pirate bandits and contaminated druids to combat, although you may get some new weapons to fend them off in type. That features issues like a blunderbuss shotgun, a cutlass, daggers, a brand new bow, and a beekeeper’s employees. You already know, the everyday sort of belongings you discover on a creepy island.
The completionists amongst you may also wish to know (or dread to listen to relying on how a lot you appreciated the sport) that a number of the new storylines can result in new endings within the base sport. No particulars on what these are, clearly, however I suppose the enjoyment of experiencing issues for the primary time is simply that!
There is a launch date for the enlargement too: June third, only a few days away on the time of writing. Let’s all see the way it shapes up, as our personal James discovered himself left wanting a bit with lots of what Atomfall needed to supply in his personal assessment of the RPG.
