‘Metro: Last Light’ DLC Incoming, First Pack Available In June

Published

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.

The Faction and Chronicles packs will bring with them new, original single player stories that expand on the Last Light fiction. After that, we’ll get the Tower pack, which will “present a unique solo challenge to Metro veterans,” and that Developer pack, which offers “creative players some interesting tools with which to explore the world of Metro.” What does that mean? I have no idea.

The Faction pack doesn’t have a solid release date yet, but we’ll definitely see it in June. If all of the above sounds simply wonderful to you, then feel free to grab the Season Pass — available for $14.99/£11.99 on Steam, XBLA and PSN — so you can get it all, along with the Abzats semi-automatic shotgun rifle. That sounded like four different guns in one, but what do I know?

WAIT. Before you leave, I’d like to tell you just one more thing. If you’re a PlayStation Plus subscriber, you can get the Season Pass for 25% off through June 4th if you’re in the States, June 5th for everyone else.

AreYouWatching.com: ‘The Watchers’ Interactive Website Is Full of Creepy Easter Eggs

Published

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
