Developer Deck13 and publisher Focus Home Interactive have announced that the first story expansion for The Surge 2, The Kraken, will be arriving on Xbox One next week.

The Kraken expansion apparently adds hours of new content, with a new storyline. The DLC takes place in the new location of Jericho City, in a retro-themed suburbia, which would be lovely and all if it wasn't for the massive, tentacled aircraft carrier plonked right next door. This is the VBS Krakow, a huge decommissioned military vessel that has be repurposed as a 'retreat for the rich and famous.'

The DLC will see players battling robot pirates and security systems-gone-awry, as well as introducing a whole new boss to the game for you to slice and dice. For players who haven't picked up the game yet, Focus Home will also be launching The Surge 2: Premium Edition on the Xbox Store, which includes the base game and all of the currently-released DLC.

The Kraken Expansion and The Surge 2: Premium Edition will launch on 16th January - although if you own the Surge 2 Season Pass, you'll get access to The Kraken on 14th January, 48 hours early. You can check out the teaser trailer below!

  • I like how they went a totally different route with the DLC in this similar to the amusement park in the first game. Getting away from the all-steel of the main city will be refreshing. Looking forward to this.
  • Still need to play this
