Dead Cells is done with updates, Hades 2 is in the midst of Steam Early Access, and Slay the Spire 2 is a way off. Some of the biggest roguelikes are still cooking, so what do you play right now if you’re as hungry as I am? Well, the Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm DLC just dropped, giving you a lot more of everything that the stellar shooter has to offer. It even has a chef robot, justifying my food analogy and proving that I’m famished.
The Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm DLC is finally here, and it’s adding a lot of new content. So if the isometric mythology of Hades is getting stale, or the Metroidvania platforming of Dead Cells is feeling a touch worn out, you can’t go wrong here. Taking the original Risk of Rain into the third dimension, there’s an entirely new level of challenge, and you can even squad up with three friends as you try to survive the harsh alien world.
Seekers of the Storm is Risk of Rain 2’s next premium DLC after Survivors of the Void, and it’s packed to bursting. There are three new survivors in the Seeker, Chef (a robot with a delightful mustache), and another secret character, five brand new environments, three more monsters, a new boss, and plenty of alternate skins for every survivor in the roguelike game.
Hopoo Games also says it didn’t want Seekers of the Storm to get in the way of the rest of the game, so the team has made an effort to segment how you access most of the content. “We wanted to ensure that the new content adds to the experience without overshadowing the incredible work done in Survivors of the Void and the base game.
“In pursuit of this, much of the content contained within Seekers of the Storm can be found while traversing what we’re calling the Path of the Colossus. Survivors that are intrepid enough to take on this challenge will need to uncover how to start down this path.”
I’ve not touched Risk of Rain 2 for a while, with the remake of the original taking all my recent attention between the launch of Hades 2 and now. That said, it’s one of my all-time favorite roguelikes, and the prospect of a robot chef man fills me with total joy.
Risk of Rain 2 DLC Seekers of the Storm is out now with the base game available at 67% off until Tuesday September 10, so expect to pay $8.24 / £6.59 before then. You can find the game and all the DLC right here.
There are plenty more indie games to sink your teeth into as well, alongside some big upcoming PC games to get excited for if you want to look ahead.
