Katana Zero is still getting her free DLC, but the scope of the project has grown dramatically according to its developer.
In a new blog post, Katana Zero creator Askiisoft explained that the size of the DLC for the 2D action game has grown six times, with the whole thing about half the size of the original game. This delayed the launch of the DLC somewhat, the blog continues to confirm that the content is blocked and will not be expanded further.
“The game is progressing at a healthy pace and the entire development team is working at full speed on production,” says the post. “The DLC will also not expand any more – the plan has been defined and we are now focused on finalizing it.”
Despite the increase in scope, the DLC will remain free for all Katana Zero players, as initially promised. There is also a sample of what will be included, with a few first looks at new weapons that will allow the killer to sculpt enemies with a plasma blaster or return the shot with a robotic gravity arm. Both seem elegant additions to the original adventure’s fast-paced hack and slash action.
Katana Zero is available for PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch and is as fast as it is smart. Like the Miami Hotline, Katana Zero puts you in incredibly dangerous scenarios, where a mistake will cause you to be killed, challenging you to dispatch enemies intelligently with skillful attacks. Our 8/10 review of Katana Zero says, “Katana Zero is bloody and brutal, but it is also a heartfelt story that you should not ignore lightly.”
