After a wee bit of teasing, Avalanche Studios this week launched the primary growth for Generation Zero. Alpine Unrest continues the post-apocalyptic Swedish survival shooter’s story of humanity’s wrestle in opposition to lethal machines with a visit to a ski resort island. How very Christmassy.
“This is our first expansion and a labour of love for the team,” Paul Keslin, Product Owner at Avalanche Studios, stated. “After launch we’ve been absorbing feedback from fans and started turning it into action.”
Generation Zero earned factors in our Generation Zero review for a stellar idea, however Emily Richardson found little of substance beneath. One of Alpine Unrest’s foremost options is the addition of fellow people struggling to eke out an existence on the island of Himfjäll, which may open up the chance for narrative growth past extra audio logs and environmental dressing.
If you boot up Generation Zero to show robots into smoking scrap by the use of massive weapons, Alpine Unrest introduced a vacation reward for you, as properly. New Apocalypse Class machines stalk the frozen climes surrounding Himfjäll, and the identify alone actually advertises hellish battle. Worry not: heftier arsenal additions like machine weapons and computerized rifles will make sure you don’t present up utterly unprepared.
All gamers can meet the brand new Apocalypse robots on the unique island with out shopping for the growth and might discover machine weapons too, as detailed in the patch notes.
