Darktide's first DLC class gets a cybernetic dog who is a very good boy, and will arrive alongside a free update that structures missions in a campaign at long last

An armored arbitrator with his cyber-mastiff.

What's better than being Judge Dredd? Being Judge Dredd with a pet robodog. Darktide's first DLC class is the arbitrator, who enforces the Lex Imperialis with shotgun and shock maul. Or assault shield and shotpistol. And grenades and shock mines, and a flying loudspeaker drone called the nuncio aquila that barks commands and insults. But mostly, it's about the dog.

I usually see my cyber-mastiff, who I have named Filthy because you get to name your dog, shooting across the screen in a powerful horizontal leap. Left to his own devices, he roams around jumping enemies and then worrying at them with his metal paws. By the time I show up to finish them off, they're often already dead.
