Hydro Thunder Hurricane 'Tempest Pack' DLC splashes down in October

by Mike Schramm on Sep 21st 2010 9:00PM

Vector Unit has announced the first DLC for Hydro Thunder Hurricane. The "Tempest Pack" will offer three new environments, two all-new boats, a boatload of new skins, plus Championship, Ring Master and Gauntlet events. The environments will have you racing through the ruins of Atlantis, the stormy Bermuda Triangle and a medieval setting named Castle Von Boom. The new boat skins will supercharge the existing boats, allowing you to run even your favorite clunker at the game's highest speeds, with two of them coming straight from the Design-a-Skin contest held a while back.

No final date or price yet, unfortunately, but you can look for the pack sometime in October.

[Thanks, Steve!]

Does any game at all come without DLC nowadays?

@Drakkenfyre Doesn't look like it. I like the game, but I'll be passing on the DLC unless it comes at the low, low price of free.

@Drakkenfyre DLC is a good way to extend a game's lifespan. HT:H came with a perfectly acceptable amount of content for an XBLA game, and new we're being given the option of adding more.

My point being is no matter how small the game's release, you are going to have DLC for it.

That $5 little minigame you bought? It's going to have an additional level added in for $1.
