Gearbox Publishing and developer Compulsion Games announced the release date for We All Fall Down, the final piece of DLC for We Happy Few. Though the original game came out near the tail end of 2018, Compulsion Games has continued to support the title with a number of content updates and general updates here and there. Perhaps it's time to return to the game to see how it has improved since I reviewed it back in August of 2018.
In We All Fall Down, you play as Victoria Byng, a woman on a mission to get rid of Joy, the psychedelic drug that is turning people into mindless husks unable to see the dire realities around them. This expansion adds in more combat options in addition to rooftop traversal.
This DLC is slated to hit the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 on November 19, 2019 for the price of $7.99 (USD). Of course, if you own the Season Pass for We Happy Few, this content is included with your purchase. The Season Pass also includes the previously released They Came from Below and Lightbearer DLCs.
We All Fall Down returns to We Happy Few’s dark origins, but burns it all down in spectacular fashion. Starving like the rest of the people, Victoria wrestles with her own withdrawals as the city slides deeper into Joy shortage and disorder. Victoria has always helped to keep things proper, but the closer she looks, the deeper the rot seems to run.
To free the city from Joy, players will strategically maneuver around the city’s rooftops, take up arms against the Bobbies, and expose citizens to their dismal truth. Victoria can whip foes in a snappy take on combat or silently take out enemies with the new dart gun. Stealthy players can climb around the rooftops, adding more variety to We Happy Few’s gameplay. We All Fall Down focuses on storytelling and fast-paced action without including the survival mechanics found in We Happy Few.
