Content For ‘Metro Exodus’ Expansion Pass Revealed
Deep Silver and 4A Games have dished out preliminary details for their upcoming downloadable content which will make up the Expansion Pass for Metro Exodus. The first content is scheduled to arrive this summer with The Two Colonels.
The Two Colonels will follow Colonel Khlebnikov, as he makes his way through the dead city of Novosibirsk to meet up with his son, Kirill, for New Year’s Eve. Things are never that easy, as the slime that infests the city’s underground has further consumed the tunnels, bringing with it more mutants. Apart from the expected claustrophobic environments, the DLC will also feature a brand-new flamethrower weapon.
Following The Two Colonels, Sam’s Story will be available for players in early 2020. Unlike the linear story-driven The Two Colonels, the second DLC will be a sandbox survival level based on Vladivostok. Sam, a US marine at the Moscow embassy before the bombs were dropped, dreams of returning to his homeland. As he makes his way away from the Aurora in search of a way back to the USA, Sam will have to use every tactic he knows in order to survive the trek through Vladivostok.
Currently, you can pre-order the Expansion Pass from the Epic Games Store, the PlayStation Store, or the Microsoft Store.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
