[Trailer] New Free Update to ‘Chernobylite’ Introduces New Monster Hunt Quest, New Enemies
The first free content for All in! Games and The Farm 51’s Chernobylite has arrived in the form of Chernobylite: Monster Hunt. Available now on consoles and PC, the update introduces a new side quest to the game, along with some new bestiary for the player to fight.
The patch introduces three new creatures: the Chernohost, Overgrown Duster, and Ancient Shadow. Each creature has their own distinctive tactics and required strategies to fight, keeping the player on their toes. Meanwhile, the new quest, Monster Hunt, tasks the player with defeating one of the three new creatures. Each one can appear on any given level in three specific areas.
Along with the new quest and enemies, the update also squashes a few gameplay bugs.
Chernobylite (which we reviewed here) is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, and the Xbox One. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series versions are expected in the future.
