Excessive on Life is certainly not one thing I’d ever consult with as a horror recreation. From its vibrant colour scheme to its extremely comedic overtones, there may be nothing about my time with Excessive on Life that made me suppose, “wow, that is scary!” Which will change quickly sufficient, although, as its upcoming DLC titled Excessive on Knife appears as if it’ll pack an exciting punch. Whereas we solely have a small teaser trailer from the Xbox Prolonged Showcase to go off of, the clip is sufficient to depart me each afraid and excited for Excessive on Knife.
Sadly, Squanch Video games has no launch date specified for Excessive on Knife, except for stating that will probably be coming quickly. The teaser clip itself is simply shy of a minute lengthy and it looks like one thing straight out of an Alien movie or a Lifeless Area recreation. With overly-squishy-sounding blood animations and terrifying large extraterrestrials, I’m loving the mixture of humorous and spooky vibes Excessive on Life’s DLC is giving off to date.
Excessive on Knife goals to provide Knifey a bit extra time within the highlight in a brand-new planetary atmosphere crammed to the brim with a various number of new characters, hazards, and scary surprises. Squanch Video games has additionally acknowledged on the DLC that it’s going to “introduce a brand-new speaking gun character, Harper, voiced by Sarah Sherman.” Sherman is an actress and comic greatest identified for her surreal, horror-inspired comedy in addition to her sketches on exhibits like Saturday Night time Dwell.
It’s good to see the studio introducing new well-known voice actors, particularly after the latest drama with Justin Roiland and his departure from Squanch Video games. I hope that the staff behind Excessive on Life doesn’t lose the general imaginative and prescient of the bottom recreation within the new DLC, however to this point it appears to me prefer it’ll be simply nearly as good if not higher. I’m excited to expertise a spookier a part of area that focuses on the darkish and dreary a bit greater than the colourful and foolish, with out shedding a contact of the latter qualities.
When you recognize comparable gameplay experiences which are a bit extra on the market, why not have a flick through our favourite fantasy video games. You can even have a look at a couple of of one of the best area video games when you love Excessive on Life’s intergalactic settings. Whereas lots of them received’t function the identical kind of humor as Squanch Video games’ title, they positively have the identical area vibes I like.
