Nomada Studio’s critically acclaimed Neva is getting some new story DLC on February 19th. Retailing for $2.99 (and available on day one for PlayStation Plus Extra/Premium subscribers), Prologue follows Alba as she meets Neva’s mother for the first time. Check out the announcement trailer below.
This is when she was still a pup, and in her frightened state, she’s not too keen on immediately trusting the human. What follows is their initial journey together, traveling through three new locations and facing off against new enemies. While it’s best appreciated after finishing the base game, Neva: Prologue is a standalone DLC with its own unique mechanics and bosses.
So, for those who didn’t get their challenge’s worth in the base game, it should offer a more substantial experience. It’s launching for PS4, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch, with more details to be revealed soon.
In the meantime, check out our review for the original Neva here. We gave it a nine out of ten, praising the art direction (which looks just as good as Gris, if not better in places), the environmental design and the storytelling. A few nagging criticisms include Summer feeling somewhat slow-paced and a slow Summer season, but it’s an otherwise accomplished experience.
