New ‘Killer Klowns From Outer Space’ DLC Arrives Tomorrow With the Crescent Cove Mall Map
Teravision Games and IllFonic have announced their October DLC drop for Killer Klowns From Outer Space will arrive tomorrow, October 29, with a new map in The Crescent Cove Mall. Part of the 1.6.0 patch, the team at IllFonic will be streaming a preview of the new map on Illfonic’s YouTube page later today at 5pm ET.
The story for this map sees the invading Klowns flocking to this “vibrant, neon-soaked shopping mall” (and have set up some killer decorations of their own, in the process). Players who are on the Human side should utilize the Mall’s maze-like features to shop and scavenge for any way to survive.
The new map features a movie theater, a bustling boardwalk Arcade, a large parking garage, and a quaint waterfront complete with bumper boats. Players will need to keep a sharp eye out for useful items while weaving their way through the Mall’s stores, corridors, and back rooms. Being exposed in the open areas is highly inadvisable. Utilize the more congested sightlines of the map to build your arsenal and remain undetected.
Most of the crossing and boat escapes are found along the coastline of the map while portal and bunker escapes have the potential to spawn in many places. The Terenzi Brothers, on the other hand, will crash their ice cream truck through somewhere within the mall itself. Some areas are less accessible to the Klown Jump ability, so positioning and teamwork are crucial for Klown teammates when guarding points of escape.
The Klowns have blocked access to the upper floors of the Mall, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to sneak around. Players should use the maze of paths and abundance of hiding places in the map to evade Klowns and throw them for a loop. Keep a lookout for wall-mounted TVs and radios to keep the Klowns distracted.
In addition, later this week, there will be Klown Tricks and Sweet Treats, a special event period with free cosmetics, an extended Double XP weekend, and more!
Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series. And if you haven’t already picked up your physical edition of the game, that’s now available, as well.
