[Damien Azreal]

It's finally here! Shelly is back to take on Heskel.

Aftershock is releasing today October 2, 2023 @ 6pm CEST / 12pm ET / 9am PT
The price is: $14.99 USD

GOG and Epic releases will come later in the week.

The game comes out @ 6pm Central AND 12pm Eastern??

Considering that's more than 50% of the base cost of the game, is there going to be enough content/new content to justify that price? Yeah, it's "only $15" I can hear people say, but if you can blow through it in a few hours I might hold off for a sale - with digital sales being what they are these days, $15 can get you a fair amount of gameplay.

I saw review and it said Aftershock is around 10 hours long

What review did you saw? GmanLives is the only youtuber who has made a review already and he said is "4 or 5 hours long"

Ion Fury was my 2019 GOTY, Aftershock will bring more of that, about half of the original campaign, so easy choice for me.

I don't equate what a game is worth just with how long it takes to finish it, I also look at gameplay, graphics, music, story, all aspects of it really, and something meta "do I want to support the people making this".

Less than 50 minutes left!

CEST is Central European Summer Time.

Central would be 11am.

When is the GOG release?

I purchased the base game yesterday and wanted to pick up the DLC today, just to find that you discounted the bundle with additional 10% - and you do not subtract the base game when you own it already? WTF. Sorry, but keep your DLC and might even refund the base game, just for bad practice.

When is it coming to GOG? I own Ion Fury on GOG and I'm not going to buy it again on Steam just to play the DLC. Why is this not released on GOG at the same time?

Yeah, that's kind of what I expected...I guess I'm going to wait for a sale/reviews. Unless the "arrange" mode is particularly good (doubtful), I'll probably wait for a discount on this one. Given the prolonged delays for what boils down to a Build engine game (albeit, certainly one of the more ambitious Build engine games) I had expected something larger, more bombastic. The Ski-Do thing looks neat, but it looks like mostly the same enemies and environments.

Cool cool ... but I have the game on GOG so still waiting.

I was just about to purchase a bundle of the base game and the expansion, when I suddenly noticed that the bundle had disappeared from the Steam store!!
Is this some bug or did the developer just randomly delete the bundle from the store?

The DLC had a launch discount (10% if memory serves) that disappeared by the time I'd gone to checkout?
