Halloween appears to return earlier and earlier yearly, and this 12 months it’s co-op kitchen chaos simulator Overcooked 2 beating the remainder of the pack to getting the vampires and ghosts out from the again of the cabinet. Night Of The Hangry Horde is a DLC that introduces a wave-based assault by the game’s ravenous zombie loaves, the unbread, together with new recipes, cooks, and kitchens. Pretend it’s October and take a peek on the creepy trailer beneath.
The new horde mode can have cooks going through off towards waves of dirty, half-sentient meals, that you just’ll must feed lest they resolve that you just’re the appetising entrée. Doing so will rack up cash that you should use to restore the beleaguered fortress partitions or get new shortcuts in order that your kitchen turns into extra environment friendly to zip round. Or complicated, if you happen to’re something like me.
Fitting with the theme, now you can select to have a creepy chef: ghost, vampire, or werewolf. (The latter appears to be like like a pleasant pet, if you happen to ask me.) And an outdated favorite, Boxhead, returns from the unique Overcooked. I assume given the theme of the remainder of the DLC that they’ve been reanimated after demise or one thing.
Your elements should be quivering of their boots, too, as there’s a brand new guillotine launched for optimum impact in chopping these carrots for soup, and furnaces for making pies and roast meat.
Even if you happen to’re too scared to dive into this DLC, there’s a free pack of extra cooks to seize, this time ocean-focused. A shark, a narwhal, and a clutch of pirates are able to make their kitchen debuts.
I believe this game is nice, and also you’re going to need to take my phrase for it as a result of I additionally wrote RPS’s Overcooked 2 review when it first got here out. “Despite being a largely frantic experience, the game also brings plenty of levity to the table,” sez I. Levity like zombie bread and shark cooks.
Night Of The Hangry Horde is on the market now on Steam for £7.99/€8.99/$9.99.
