Square Enix and Avalanche Studios announced today that the second content pack from the Air, Land and Sea Expansion Pass - Mech Land Assault - will be available to Expansion Pass Holders on 3rd June, with a wider release expected to hit on 10th June.
In the Mech Land Assault pack, Rico Rodriguez will head to the island of Lacrima, home to an abandoned eDen research base and a prison camp run by the mysterious Black Hand. The Black Hand are protected by powerful Mechs, which Rodriguez can hijack by using the new Bavarium Power Core rifle to disable their shields.
“The Bavarium Wingsuit from the Sky Fortress DLC fundamentally changed how Rico could traverse Medici. This time, we wanted to shake up how Rico interacts with his environment in a similar way,” explained Tobias Andersson, Senior Producer at Avalanche Studios. “The new Mechs allow Rico to throw enemies, vehicles and chaos objects around like tennis balls – increasing the scope for physics-based fun. Whether you’re juggling a small car or punching helicopters out of the sky, the Mechs give you the opportunity to mess with your surroundings in creative, explosive ways.”
The MECH LAND ASSAULT pack is priced at $11.99 / €11.99 / £9.49 whilst the AIR, LAND & SEA Expansion Pass is available for $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99.
Avalanche Studios also confirmed that the final DLC pack from the Air, Land & Sea Expansion - BAVARIUM SEA HEIST – will be released by the end of summer 2016.
