Summary
Content Warning, Landfall’s latest release,has received its first big update, barely a month after it launched.Content Warningroared out on its first day as it was free, but it continues to see play on Steam.
The latest in an annual tradition of Landfall,Content Warningwas released on April Fools, which the developer has also called Landfall Day. This has seen them release other games in the past, likeKnightfall, generally free for some time.Over 6 million people grabbedContent Warningwhile it was free, and more people have bought it for the low price of $7.99 since April 2. This isn’t the update for the game, but the past updates were focused on bugs and connectivity issues, while this latest update is adding a bunch of new content for players, although players usingContent Warningmodsmay want to wait until their favorite mods are updated too.
This bigContent Warningupdate has a few high-level additions, and then some smaller additions and fixes. The headline is that there is a whole new map added toContent Warning, providing more of the old world to see for players. There will be newContent Warningmonstersto find, avoid, and tape, with 13 of them being added here for players to line up to show off on spooktube to make some money. Many of the monsters have also been balanced. Beyond monsters and the new map, there is also a new rare cursed item that will be in the old world.
Clearly inspired byLethal Company,Content Warning’s humor and stylehave managed to help it stand out in the market. WhileLethal Companyaims grim,Content Warningproudly fits the idea of a game released on April 1, making light of the whole idea of people taking cameras and filming monsters in the world.Content Warningaims for a different sort of atmosphere in general by mixing the funny and scary, and it harnesses the silliness that often occurs in co-operative gaming experiences to help reinforce those ideas, rather than fighting against them. Going from laughing and joking to a tense escape is a different experience than the constant darkness that many other horror games strive for.
