Publisher Paradox Interactive today announced that colony builder Surviving Mars will get a new batch of content in the shape of three new content creator packs. The first of them, Martian Express, adds trains to the Red Planet, giving players a new means of moving colonists and resources across greater distances.
Accompanying it, the Future Contemporary Cosmetic Pack adds 10 terrestrial building skins for the price of £3.99/€4.99/$4.99 or your regional equivalent, while the Revelation Radio DLC enriches Surviving Mars’ musical offering with 16 new songs from 4 artists. Clocking in at 70 minutes of new music, this DLC can be purchased individually for £2.89/€3.99/$3.99.
Surviving Mars: Martian Express Creator Pack
Created by modders Lucian “LukeH” Hada and Sylvain “Silva” Maupetit, Surviving Mars: Martian Express is the priciest content creator pack of the bunch, going for £5.19/€6.99/$6.99. Here’s how the publisher describes its features:
- Welcome commuters! - Build your stations anywhere on the map and help your colonists get to work and back. Click on the info panel to see their reason for traveling and make sure that everyone gets their seat. Otherwise, they’ll have to wait for the next train - and be frustrated, nobody likes to miss the train.
- New tracks - Click and drag to create tracks that connect your stations. Tracks will be elevated allowing your rovers and drones to pass underneath together with power cables, while pipes can cross over them.
- Same train, different cargo - Traveling on the red planet has never been safer (and efficient!). Trains will have 2 wagons to transport colonists and resources at the same time. Don't worry: they'll travel on the same track with no risk of collision. Build your trains in the stations, assign them to the connected tracks and watch them go.
You can already wishlist Martian Express on Steam. All three packs will launch on April 28 and can be purchased as part of the “All new in” Bundle, which will set you back £11.39/€14.99/$14.99.
