PowerWash Simulator was first released as an early access title back in May 2021. Since then, the game has been released on various other platforms, and has seen the release of DLCs that took players from Lara Croft’s manor to Bikini Bottom, and even Final Fantasy 7‘s Midgar.

“We are continuously in awe of the impact our game has made on people,” said FuturLab CEO Kristy Rigden. “Now with a staggering 12 million players, it’s clear that there’s a desire for games like PowerWash Simulator that provide a soothing sense of satisfaction – and we intend to make them!”

Most recently, PowerWash Simulator saw the release of the Warhammer 40,000 Special Pack, which brought with it quite a few new things for players to clean, including an Ultramarines Land Raider, and a Dark Angels Redemptor Dreadnought.

The game has also seen a release away from flat screens, coming to Meta Quest 2, 3, and Pro headsets back in November 2023.

The Warhammer 40,000 collaboration DLC throws PowerWash Simulator players into the shoes of a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus, tasked with performing the ultimate purification protocol and cleaning several pieces of Imperium gear.

Along with cleaning several Imperial vehicles and machines, the player will also quench their thirst for knowledge by finding field reports from the frontlines. To help them with this task, the player is equipped with a custom MKII Aqua-Santica Arquebus power washer.

As part of the new DLC, players will be able to clean a host of Imperial machines and vehicles, including an Ultramarines Land Raider, a Dark Angels Redemptor Dreadnought, an Astra Militarum Rogal Dorn Tank, a House Hawkshroud Imperial Knight, and a Blood Angels Thunderhawk.

For more details about PowerWash Simulator: Warhammer 40,000 Special Pack, check out the trailer released earlier this month.

Rather than throwing in some Warhammer 40,000-inspired levels into PowerWash Simulator and calling it a day, the DLC instead goes quite in-depth. Players are put into the shoes of a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus and equipped with a custom MKII Aqua-Santica Arquebus power washer.

The DLC will feature a host of different objects and vehicles from Warhammer 40,000 that players will be tasked with cleaning up, including an Ultramarines Land Raider, a Dark Angels Deathwing Redemptor Dreadnought, the Astra Militarum Rogal Dorn Tank, a House Hawkshroud Imperial Knight, and a Blood Angels Thunderhawk.

While all of the new cleaning targets revolve around the Imperium and its various sub-factions, the variety available, ranging from a Land Raider to an Imperial Knight, is quite impressive.

Santa’s Workshop is the latest in a series of major DLC releases PowerWash Simulator has seen since last year. While most DLC releases for the game revolved around collaborations with other properties and titles, Santa’s Workshop is the first one that can be considered a new DLC that doesn’t have anything to do with a pre-existing property aside from Christmas.

The last major DLC release for PowerWash Simulator featured the Back to the Future movie franchise. The DLC brought with it a host of new content related to the classic movie trilogy. The game has also seen DLC revolving around Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy 7, and SpongeBob SquarePants. Currently, FuturLab is working with Games Workshop to bring a Warhammer 40,000-themed DLC to the game.

LEGO 2K Drive launched earlier this year and offered an open-world racing take on the Lego franchise. Players can build vehicles out of Lego blocks, race around Bricklandia in a quest to earn the Sky Trophy and partake in different mini-games and side missions. It also supports cross-play.

PowerWash Simulator is FuturLab’s breakout “clean ’em up”, which revolves around washing things. You have different nozzles and cleaning fluids, while each location in Muckingham offers unique challenges. It even has co-op support and various updates have added locations from games like Final Fantasy 7.

Finally, Sable is a compelling adventure game, as players guide the titular protagonist through a rite of passage, navigating the world on a hoverbike and exploring ancient ruins. As always, all three games will also be available for PlayStation Plus Deluxe and Premium subscribers to claim.

As the DLC’s name might indicate, it will allow players to take their cleaning equipment to take on movie sets and props inspired by the Back to the Future franchise. Among other things, players will be able to clean out Doc Brown’s van, the Time Machine, Hill Valley Clocktower, the Holomax Theatre, and Doc’s Time Train. The DLC will also bring with it 10 new achievements that players can strive for.

Far from the first collaborative DLC for PowerWash Simulator, the game has in the past featured DLC in collaboration with SpongeBob SquarePants, Final Fantasy 7, and Tomb Raider. There is also a planned DLC featuring Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000, which doesn’t yet have a release date aside from a Q4 2023 release window.

PowerWash Simulator is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

With the SpongeBob SquarePants collaboration DLC having been released back in June, PowerWash Simulator is now gearing up for more content, the first of which will be free content related to the Muckingham Files update which was released for the game back in April. Q3 2023 will also see the release of new paid DLC.

Q4 2023 is slated to get free seasonal content alongside the Warhammer 40,000 DLC, which will be paid. The DLC sadly doesn’t yet have a solid release date. The studio has also revealed that PowerWash Simulator VR is still slated for a 2023 release, albeit with no solid release date.

PowerWash Simulator has seen quite a few collaboration DLCs released over time, including content featuring Final Fantasy 7, Tomb Raider, and most recently, SpongeBob SquarePants.

PowerWash Simulator is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Special Pack brings a new mini-campaign to PowerWash Simulator, which includes six new maps, 10 new achievements, and a redesigned player character model to better fit the DLC’s art style. Players will be able to clean their way across famous locations and objects from SpongeBob SquarePants, like Conch Street, The Krusty Krab, and the Mermalair.

The SpongeBob SquarePants DLC for PowerWash Simulator was first announced back in May, where the unique look of the DLC was first shown off.

Developer FuturLab describes the DLC as a love letter to the look of the original animated series. It is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch, and is priced at $7.99.

Considering the breadth of the Warhammer 40,000 setting, the possibilities are almost endless for the types of scenarios PowerWash Simulator players can find themselves in. We’ll likely see some of the most iconic Warhammer 40,000 things in the game, such as a Space Marine’s armour, or larger vehicles like a Leman Russ tank.

At this point, PowerWash Simulator is no stranger to having strange crossover DLC related to other properties. Earlier this month, FuturLab announced that a series of levels based on SpongeBob SquarePants would be making their way to the game in a DLC slated for summer.

Previously, the game has also seen DLC based on other games, including Final Fantasy 7 and the classic Tomb Raider games. April also saw the release of the Muckingham Files update for PowerWash Simulator which revolved around improvements to the core game and its story.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Special Pack will be a paid DLC, priced at $7.99. While no release date for the new DLC has been given, the studio has stated in the description of its teaser trailer that it will be coming to PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.

For the new DLC, PowerWash Simulator is getting some serious visual overhauls to make the game’s art style match that of SpongeBob SquarePants. The DLC will feature six new maps in a new mini campaign, with levels featuring Conch Street, The Bikini Bottom Bus, The Krusty Krab, the Patty Wagon, The Invisible Boatmobile, and The Mermalair. It will also feature 10 new achievements for players to chase.

While the last major update for PowerWash Simulator revolved around the core game and its story, the title has seen a couple of collaboration DLCs released over time, including with Final Fantasy 7 and Tomb Raider.
