One of the well-reviewed puzzle games to release in 2020 has made its way onto the portable platform, Nintendo Switch. Mighty Polygon and Ravenscourt aren’t just releasing Relicta onto the final missing platform though. Their news comes with bonus updates, such as the release of the Xbox Series update for Xbox One users to take advantage of for better visual and performance quality.
On top of all the platform release news, they have thrown out two free DLC’s for all platforms to enjoy! If you end up grabbing this game for the Nintendo Switch, they will be pre-packed, but all other platforms can simply download this content and expand their game. The new DLC’s are called Aegir Gig and Ice Queen.
Aegir Gig has you playing as Nic, a bioengineer tasked with testing the gravitomagnetic interfaces in the environments he helped design for AEGIR Labs years before the events of the main game, with 12 new and even more challenging puzzles to solve as you experience the Chandra Base in a whole new way.
Ice Queen follows after events in the main story as you play as one of the survivors of Chandra Base after the end of Relicta. Alone in the depths of the moon, you discover a new biome with 12 additional puzzles that will challenge you in unique ways by using two new mechanics, combined with your toolset from the main game, to escape and find out more about what happened in the derelict lunar base.
These updates definitely increase, or perhaps bring back, replayability to this game. It’s always nice to see developers show appreciation to their players with free content, especially when the game was well made in the first place! Looks like I have some new puzzles to solve.
