Focus Home and Deck13 Interactive have revealed additional information on Walk in the Park, the first expansion for The Surge. The new disclosures provide a timeline for the game’s first narrative DLC, which hits PC and consoles next month, and fans were treated to a short preview of the first Surge add-on via a new teaser trailer.

The Surge: Walk in the Park shifts the action from the CREO manufacturing facility we explored in the base game to an abandoned amusement park owned by the same company. The facility was originally envisioned as a special destination for CREO staff and their families, but has taken on a much darker purpose since its inception. Like any dilapidated amusement park worth a damn, CREO World is chock full of busted roller coasters, terrifying mascots and malfunctioning A/V technology. There are numerous visual reminders that not everyone managed to escape CREO World when things went south. Players will encounter a variety of new enemies, including several new bosses, and recover loads of new weapons and armor for Warren to integrate into his exosuit.

Here’s how a press release about the expansion describes CREO World:

CREO World presents a wealth of fresh challenges for players. Originally created to celebrate CREO and its mission, the park is a radically different setting from the rest of the complex, full of branching paths and secrets to discover. Survive the raging mascots and explore the park's attractions, before taking on a fearsome boss in the devastated park. Through technical and spectacular fights, you will face this new threat, cutting and equipping 16 all-new weapons, sets of armor, and new implants to upgrade and further customize the way you want to play.

Focus Home will also publish a collated version of Deck 13’s latest action RPG, called The Surge: Complete Edition, which includes the base game and its first expansion. The Complete Edition will debut alongside the expansion, in early December, and fans can already pre-order that version on PSN and Steam. The publisher says Xbox One pre-orders begin Nov. 21.

For a sneak peek at the new areas we’ll explore in The Surge: Walk in the Park, check out the teaser trailer published Thursday. Then head down to the comments and let us know if you’re planning to check out the first Surge expansion when it hits PC and consoles next month.

The Surge is currently available on PS4, Xbox One and PC. The game’s first expansion, A Walk In the Park, debuts Dec. 5.
