A review of the concluding Just Cause 3 DLC from Destructoid described the Eden Spark lightning gun as “legitimately cool,” making it a “sweet addition” to the weapon arsenal. “The entire story builds up to Rico getting a hold of this gun, which literally brings down a sustained beam of lightning from the sky to destroy anything under it,” it added.
The review also cited how the latest DLC is “exactly the same” as the previously released content packs for Just Cause 3. Explaining how all these DLCs resemble each other, it shared the following.
“Drawn cutscenes introduce an issue that Rico needs to solve. He liberates some areas. There’s a final mission. At some point, a new gizmo or doodad is introduced and unlocked. Fin.”
Looking back at the first two Just Cause 3 expansion packs released by Avalanche Studios, this observation seemed to be true. The first DLC called Sky Fortress brought in a jetpack wingsuit while the second one, Mech Land Assault, made two powerful and controllable Mechs available for gamers, according to Steam. And in this third Just Cause 3 DLC, players will be able to get hold of the lightning gun and the rocket boat.
“Our aim with the Air, Land & Sea Expansion Pass was to completely alter the way players tackle the game and we’ve achieved just that,” Marcus Andrews, lead designer of the Air, Land & Sea content shared, as cited on GameSpot. “Each of the three packs of new tools allows the player to wreak havoc in fresh, creative, and unique ways that ensure both new and existing fans of Just Cause 3 will have hours of additional content and an enormous number of ways to approach any situation.”
Those who plan to avail Bavarium Sea Heist as an individual purchase once it arrives for non-Season Pass owners on Thursday next week will have to shell out $6.
