I'm personally more interested in the new mission types, because greater mission variance is something Phoenix Point sorely needs. The civilization which supposedly faced the Pandoravirus long before humans were around.Īnd as humans love to do, it sounds like we'll be able to weaponize this newfound knowledge, with new weapons and equipment with which to fight the Pandorans. So it looks like we'll be learning a lot more about the antediluvian civilization that old Randy Symes has been nattering on about throughout the Phoenix Point campaign. New units, new mission types, new research, new maps, new weapons and armor, and a brutal challenge. The description for the Legacy of the Ancients DLC on the Epic Store is as follows:ĭiscover an ancient human civilization facing down its own mutant threat, and harness their knowledge and tools in service of the Phoenix Project. The release date on the Epic Store banner posited April 1st 2020, but like the other banners this has since been removed, so it should be used as more of a guideline than a set date. Legacy of the Ancients looks to be a larger content update for Phoenix Point, and will likely release a couple of months after Blood and Titanium, around April 2020.
Phoenix Point DLC 2: Legacy of the Ancients But as for whether it'll actually happen, we'll have to wait and see. After all, we've got Tritons making use of human weaponry, so it's more than feasible. I'm also interested in whether "enemies will bring cybernetics to bear against your team" means just the other human factions (probably), or whether the Pandorans will start to use cybernetics too (intriguing). As well as the new abilities and research projects I'm sure the appearance of cybernetics will mean new equipment - perhaps an equivalent to the Disciples of Anu's mutations? Something more permanent than regular armor and weaponry? Given this description, and the fact that Blood and Titanium will be one of the few DLCs priced at $4.99 instead of $9.99, I'm expecting a smaller content update here but it sounds as though this new content will touch upon multiple aspects of Phoenix Point. But beware: enemies will bring cybernetics to bear against your team, too. Unlock new abilities for your soldiers, new research projects, and new approaches to tactical combat. Here is the description for the Blood and Titanium DLC on the Epic Store:Įxpand the power and versatility of Phoenix Point operatives with cybernetic augmentations. When the three DLCs were first posted on the Epic Store, the Blood and Titanium banner featured a January 31st 2020 release date, but that date has since been removed. While DLCs 4 and 5 are something of a mystery so far, we've gone over everything we know about the first three in the sections below.īlood and Titanium is the first Phoenix Point DLC we'll be able to get our hands on, and we can expect it in " early 2020" according to Snapshot Games. Purchasing the Season Pass (for $29.99/£22.76) will give you access to all five DLCs when they're released and everyone who backed Phoenix Point prior to Maat 10 AM PST (including all Fig backers, regardless of tier) will receive the Season Pass for free.
