CHICKEN RUN: DAWN OF THE NUGGET COMES TO PARK BEYOND TODAY IN A NEW DLC
Publisher Bandai Namco Europe today released the Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World for Park Beyond, in collaboration with the Academy Award®-winning animation studio Aardman. This DLC celebrates the Netflix movie Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget which also releases today.
In this DLC, players will get access to two new maps inspired by the Fun-Land Farms and Chicken Village from the movie. The first is a vibrant and joyful world hiding the sinister business at hand, while the second takes players to the village in the forest!
More than 280 new decorative items are included to help recreate the uncanny atmosphere of the Chicken Village, the Fun-Land-Farms and the factory. Colourful fake grass hills, sun shaped arches and forest scenery, but also miradors and impenetrable walls are added for those who really like the high security look of the factory. This Theme World also brings eggciting new flat rides and their impossifications, as well as a coaster track, cars and modules, for even more fun for the visitors and players to create the most unique parks.
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World is releasing alongside Patch 2.3, bringing the Monorail Track type and the new free High Fantasy theme, which includes even more content such as scenery objects, entertainers, animatronics and more!
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World is available for purchase now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. As announced earlier this month, players who pre-ordered Park Beyond can claim this DLC for free! Find the process to redeem it here: [link to article]
