Microsoft Game Studios and developer Vector Unit have announced the Hydro Thunder Hurricane Tempest Pack DLC, scheduled for release in October.
The Tempest Pack will include three brand new racing environments, two new Expert-class rocket-powered speedboats, new boat skins for existing boats, as well as new Championship, Ring Master and Gauntlet events.
New tracks include the volcanic ruins of Atlantis, the whipped-up waters of the Bermuda Triangle, and a medieval obstacle course packed with exploding barrels and interactive cannons.
“The new environments are all about ratcheting up the level of insanity,” said creative director Matt Small. “The weather is stormier, the waves are bigger, and the levels are packed with more interactive obstacles and more potential for chaos and destruction. That’s what puts the tempest in Tempest Pack.”
All new and existing boats get new unlockable skins, including paint schemes for Banshee and Rad Hazard designed by the winners of the Design-A-Skin Video Contest hosted by Vector Unit in August.
The Tempest Pack also adds three new Achievements, Ring Master and Gauntlet courses for all new levels, and three new Championships.
Pricing and an exact release date will follow at a later date.
