Developer Blog #8: Creating the first DLC: “It Came From the Junkyard”

DEADCRAFT

Farm the dead to stay alive in DEADCRAFT, a new twist on the zombie survival-action genre! As a half-zombie, grow an army of loyal undead followers and build an arsenal to equip them to take revenge on the rulers of humanity's last city.

The first DLC for [i]DEADCRAFT[/i], “It Came From the Junkyard,” was conceived in the early stages of development. We started with the general idea of an additional story like you often find in manga, where after beating the game an even stronger enemy appears, and you must team up with your friends to defeat the new foe. What I wanted to do was simple—I wanted to create the supreme ruler of [i]DEADCRAFT[/i]’s post-apocalyptic zombie wasteland.

I thought it would have been difficult for our staff to be working on DLC while also developing the main story. The main setting in “It Came From the Junkyard” is the eponymous Junkyard, a barren land inhabited solely by zombies. Although this area appears in the main story, it may be difficult for players to fully explore it because of the sheer number of powerful zombies that roam the area. In the DLC, Reid and his friends will take on the Junkyard together, and I hope you reach the very end of it.
