Redout 2 launches Winter Pack DLC, available now

Redout 2 has some new DLC to enjoy as of 9th February, and it includes some new tracks, new music, and a new way to get some practice in on the fast-paced anti-grav racer.

The Winter Pack DLC launched on Thursday as the title’s second premium DLC pack. Inside, Redout 2 fans will find the Terror Rupes environment which contains four new and original tracks, three of which are considered base courses and the fourth being a boss track. These tracks are also reversible.

With this new Terror Rupes area, you’ll find the extreme conditions of Mercury prevalent. These areas promise “seriously dramatic temperature shifts” with running through Mercury’s glacial plains and canyons of lava.

The DLC will also include added fun in the form of 28 new career events, 29 bonus pieces of content such as liveries, colors and cosmetics, and for fans of Dance With the Dead, new music from them will also be included.

For all players of the game, regardless if you have the new DLC or not, Redout 2 now offers a new Training Mode to be able to practice all courses unlimitedly before jumping into an actual race. There are also some updates and fixes found in the rest of the patch, and those are listed below.

The Winter Pack DLC is part of the Season Pass for the title, together with the previous Summer Pack DLC, so it will be available immediately for Season Pass owners.

It is also available to own as a standalone purchase for $9.99/£8.99/€9.99 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC via Steam and Epic.

Be sure to take a look at the patch notes below, courtesy of Saber Support. Also do note that in multiplayer lobbies, only the host will need to own this DLC for other players to enjoy.
