Emergence

Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.

Tonfas? Cool. I’m looking forward to another trip to feudal Japan.

Probably about 2-3 months after this one, so October ish

Bloodshed’s End is the final one, with no release date set yet.

There is one more DLC after this one if I remember right.

Yup, read the Team Ninja post on PlayStation blog. I didn’t realize the second DLC would be so soon. Looking forward to it.

Is this the last DLC?
