Was the season pass worth getting? From what I had seen it wasn't and the fact that they are hiding the enhancement behind at least 1 of the dlc's it looks like they don't think so either.

Just looked 'em up and they smack of tacked on extras.

edit: But The Following may make it worthwhile as it adds a map as large/larger than one in base game.

Season Pass was €20, for the following expansion that's well worth it, I also enjoyed some of the DLC already. They upped price but gave people 2 week warning.

Compared to other games' season passes it's a steal, (or was). Personally can't wait to get back into it, apart from State Of Decay, it's on par with Dead Rising 3 for Zed games!

So the 4th DLC/expansion (The Following) *is* part of the season pass? That makes it a slightly less bitter pill to swallow if it matches Techland's hype.

Yep it's part of existing season pass, not now though.

Once The Following is released it will be, though?

I asked official DL Twitter, and according to that, EE will be free to anyone who has the base game.

There's a graphic on previous page.

It's not part of the season pass now, but if you had season pass up till last week it is.

Just to clarify (as Photek is being rather confusing/wrong), the season pass will always contain the expansion; they're increasing the price of the season pass on Tuesday to account for the increased size of the thing.
Source: http://www.vg247.com/2015/11/25/techlan ... ason-pass/

If you're a day one owner, the season pass was rather a rip-off, as you got 2 of the 3 things included in it already. Your choice then, is to go with the season pass now and effectively get The Bozak Horde for free, or hold out and wait for a discount on the expansion some time in the future if you want to save some money.

If you don't have a Day One edition, the season pass is good value until Tues.

No idea. The base game looked really good on console, too.

Had a great time with the base game. Will probably pick up the GOTY equivalent if that expansion ends up as good as it looks.

^Old, confusing info graphic.


The updated info graphic makes it clear that everyone who owns the base game gets enhancements for free.

I've had the Season Pass from day one, so I'm really happy to see Techland offering The Following and all the game engine enhancements as part of that. Really wasn't expecting that. Looking forward to seeing this expansion! DL is still, for me, the best zombie apocalypse game available.

Yeah, Techland and WB Interactive should be lauded for making enhancements free to all. And adding that huge expansion into the SP when it wasn't even mentioned at SP release? Amazing.
