‘Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord’ Receiving Two Free DLC Packs Later This Year

Published

on

Fans of the recently-released Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord will have plenty of content to devour in the coming weeks, as Sony Pictures VR has announced two free DLC packs for the game later this year. And according to the announcement, it’s only just the beginning of additional content for the VR game.

Both DLC packs will introduce new game modes on top of the existing four in the base game. The first DLC will include “Heist & Seek”, which is described as the first competitive mode in Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord. In this game mode, three bank-robbing brothers from the great beyond are carrying out a heist for old time’s sake, and it’s up to the Ghostbusters to put them away for good.

Players must team up to encounter each crook one at a time. Locate the first gigantic pile of gold and battle a stream of golden ghosts while the one brother takes cover. When all the golden ghosts are defeated, the Ghostbusters will follow that to the next gold pile (with one of the other brothers), where the sequence repeats until all three brothers face off against the Ghostbusters.

However, there’s a twist. Teammates are pitted against one another to compete for catches. If a Ghostbuster goes down, the money they’ve collected in the mission so far can be stolen by the reviving player on their team. The Ghostbuster with the most loot emerges victorious in a winner-takes-all at the end.

The next DLC will bring “Infestation” to Rise of the Ghost Lord. In this game mode, Ghostbusters find themselves at a location overrun by a particularly egregious and stubborn entity. This grotesque manifestation has burrowed itself into a home within the building’s infrastructure. Armed with their trusty PKE meters, players will embark on a mission to locate this ghostly intruder. You’ll track eerie activity and pinpoint the elusive nest’s location.

You’ll have to bust mischievous ghosts and maneuver through the horde of anthropomorphic manifestations. The trick to dealing with these Nest monsters is to go for the eyes. Use your particle streams to hook the entity’s giant eyes and pluck them out with well-timed blasts. However, to even get its attention, you’ll have to work together with your team to divide and conquer, as other ghosts will rush to defend the nest.

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord is available now on the PlayStation Store and Meta Quest Store.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
