Une première extension assez importante est parue hier pour ce jeu au thème très original, jeu dans lequel vous incarnez un baron de la drogue dans le contexte de l’Amérique du sud des années 80, et devez développer votre entreprise en faisant face aux autorités, aux cartels rivaux, ou encore à la fameuse DEA.
Au menu de cet add-on, de nouveaux personnages et une nouvelle campagne scénarisée à découvrir, douze régions supplémentaires soit en fait une plus grande carte de jeu, des améliorations des bâtiments et de l’agencement des villes, ou encore la possibilité de transporter vos cargaisons par ferry, autrement dit un nouveau système logistique.
Depuis sa sortie de l’Accès anticipé en juillet l’an dernier, le jeu de base a bénéficié d’un suivi régulier, voyez par exemple ci-après le video dev log de décembre.
