Oh, you’re still here? You’re not a burning, irradiated husk right now? Good for you. In case you haven’t heard already, Metro: Last Light is like, really, really good. If you’ve beaten the game and find yourself itching — as in craving, not the itch you feel as the nuclear radiation seeps itself deep down into your bones, which it’s almost definitely doing right now — to return to the metro, soon, you’ll be able to.

4A Games is working on four A-quality (see what I did there? Professional writer here, no big deal) DLC packs, starting with the Faction pack next month. Deets after the break.

Post-apocalyptic survival horror game Afterfall: InSanity has seen enough success on Steam to warrant an expansion, which was revealed on the game’s Steam page earlier today. Afterfall: Peal of the Wasteland will bring with it three episodes, each 1.5-2 hours in length, that feature different characters whose paths will intersect.

“Every soul perceives Pearl as something different –we want to present the same story as told by three different heroes with different motivations, experience and desires. Players [will] be able to control three different characters whose paths might cross at certain points. Although they will share a similar goal, the road, just like the Pearl itself, is unique for Reaper, Hope Iriv and Rottgar Iriv.” the dev posted in an announcement on Steam.

No word yet on when this will arrive or how much it will cost — we’ll update as soon as we find out.

Free Expansion Coming To Indie Horror Hit ‘Paranormal’

I haven’t had the chance to play Paranormal yet, even though I really want to. It’s trying for distribution on Steam Greenlight right now — you can support it here — and soon, the game will get its first expansion. As its name would imply, Paranormal is a first person horror game that puts you in a house that’s haunted by malicious spirits. Like, really haunted. Those ghosts and/or demons missed their Haunting Subtlety 101 course, because they will do anything to scare the ever living hell out of you. Like a deeply unsettling art mannequin bonfire in your living room. If that doesn’t chill you to your bones, you are a far braver person than I am.

The neat thing about this game is the scares are randomly generated, there are even multiple endings so it’s different every time you play. The expansion, dubbed The Town, follows this same rule, as it will bring an entire town that will be filled with randomly generated content. More after the break!

Skyrim released over a year ago, and Bethesda has done a solid job of supporting it with patches and a few expansions. Dawnguard was good fun, even if it was fairly buggy, then there’s Hearthfire, which lets you adopt kids and build big houses. What’s not to like about that? Dragonborn is being touted as the biggest update so far, though really, that’s not saying too much. It releases tomorrow on the Xbox 360 and will come to the PS3 and PC in January. Details and a trailer after the break.

‘Nightmare In North Point’ Available Now, Here’s A Launch Trailer To Get You In The Mood

I really enjoyed the open-world crime game Sleeping Dogs, and I love me a good horror-themed expansion. If you’re looking for something to play between visits from treat-hungry kids, I highly suggest checking out the new Nightmare in North Point expansion for Sleeping Dogs. Unfortunately, unlike Red Dead Redemption’s Undead Nightmare and Infamous II’s Festival of Blood, this is not a standalone expansion, so you’ll need a copy of the game to play it. It’s 560 MSP for the Xbox 360 or $4.99 for the PS3 and PC — but really, how can you put a price on beating down Chinese vampires with your magical fury fists? Feel free to click that Read More button, as it will transport you to a magical land that a launch trailer calls home.

Skyrim’s First Expansion Introduces New Vampire Forms, Ghost Horses And Creepy Cemeteries

I’ve said it time and time again to any unfortunate soul who happens to be sitting next to me at the time that one of my biggest complaints about the near-perfect Skyrim was how little Bethesda expanded on the vampire underworld. You could get infected and become one, and if you read enough books you could learn more about the various covens scattered about the world, but other than that it remained largely untouched. This makes Dawnguard, the game’s first expansion, all the more exciting because not only will we have the chance to learn more about the vampires, we’ll get to fight in the war between them and the Dawnguard. It also looks to be introducing new vampire forms, mounted combat, fucking ghost horses. Check out the debut trailer, after the break. READ MORE

Everyone’s favorite horror RPG is getting a second dose of DLC with a single-player expansion dubbed ‘Ryder White’. Fans might recognize this name as it belongs to the colonel who goes all William Birkin on you at the end of the game (belated spoiler!). I am all for an expansion on the story, especially one that brings with it several hours of gameplay, new weapon blueprints, and the chance to be evil.

Ryder Return to Dead Island As The Villain In Ryder White

Ryder White will be available in just a few short weeks, or January 31 on PSN and February 1 for XBLA and Steam. It’ll cost you $9.99, or 800 Microsoft Screaming Ponies. Is this something you’re interested in? READ MORE
