One of the year’s most intense games just got an update that promises to turn it into an even more frantic first-person shooter. Developer Strange Scaffold’s I Am Your Beast added nine new levels in a free expansion called Support Group, which turns the game’s original protagonist into a mythical figure of controlled carnage.
The Support Group DLC is an epilogue to the original campaign of I Am Your Beast. It centers around stories told by members of the Covert Operations Initiative — the game’s enemies — after the events of the base game. In the campfire tales they tell each other, protagonist Alphonse Harding morphs into a supernatural figure even more terrifying than he is in reality. That manifests in new abilities for Harding, plus levels more over-the-top than the fast-paced shooter featured at launch earlier this year.
