Dead Nation is Getting an Expansion Pack Called “Road of Devastation”

Way back in December of last year, Mark Bridle reviewed isometric top down PlayStation Network shooter Dead Nation, and gave it a reasonable 7 out of 10 score. Now it seems, there is more coming from developer Housemarque.

Over on the Official PlayStation Blog, it has just been revealed by Petteri Putkonen that DLC called “Road of Devastation” will be coming to PlayStation Network, and although no release date has been announced, plenty of information on the addon has been released.

From the ashes of the apocalypse, an organization has worked in the shadows, tampering with the human gene, modifying and improving upon it to create the perfect soldier – the ultimate zombie killing machine – you!

Continuing from the events where the original game left off (or, is it actually the other way around…), you’ll find Road of Devastation will put your skills to the ultimate test.

You’ll find yourself waking up in a laboratory with only one way out. Outside the door you’re presented with a choice – you’re faced with a crossroads leading to three different roads, each with their own unique environments, challenges and enemies waiting for you.

You wake up with no memory of the past – your mission: Survive

In the end, if you manage to overcome the challenges, just when you think it’s over, you’ll make a startling revelation…

In addition to the range of enemies and weapons you’re already familiar with from the original game, Road of Devastation will present you with a variety of new tools and equipment to dispose of enemies with, while also introducing new enemies and obstacles you’ll encounter in unique new environments.

Dead Nation is out now for PlayStation 3, there is no release date available yet for the Road of Devastation DLC pack.
