Get In The Car’s second expansion - The Fate Of Another World - picks up right after the base game’s ending, and clocking in at around 4-6 hours, it’s much larger than the game’s normal chapters. The Fate Of Another World adds two new party members and boss battles, five different enemy types, and an all-new progression system. The soundtrack has also been updated, both in battle and on the road - I’m glad the designated AUX cord-er is keeping their playlist fresh. The new DLC introduces Emily Harmless, who used to be a librarian, now a fated warrior chosen by the heavens every 976 years. As the Steam page describes it, “the last time she got a full night’s sleep was in undergrad anyway,” so this is a net neutral, I guess, even though I don’t remember getting much sleep in undergrad either. The other new party member is Prince Sam, described as “your new goth boyfriend,” which is a far cry from the promise of a lesbian road trip, although there’s something in here for everyone now. This DLC’s new hellish, burning landscape should be a great match with Get In The Car’s self-deprecating banter and is a welcome change from the base game’s cheery greens and blues. The Fate Of Another World expansion is £8/€10/$10 on Steam and itch.io and is currently on sale until February 20th. You’ll need to own the base game to enjoy the DLC, though. Luckily the light-hearted RPG has a bundle on Steam and itch.io that compiles Get In The Car, Loser! with its two expansion packs.
