Sanctum 2 Third DLC Announced - The Pursuit

Acclaimed indie development team Coffee Stain Studios announced today its third DLC expansion pack forSanctum 2 on PC, the inventive fusion of tower-defense and first-person shooter genres, will release on October 25 via Steam.  In Sanctum 2: The Pursuit players will pursue a major enemy from the end of the second DLC storyline – Ruins of Brightholme –and will discover impressive  weapons, powerful tower options, fun perks, and much more in this thrilling DLC update.

We had a lot of fun developing this segment of the Sanctum 2 storyline. With The Pursuit, we wanted to make it even more action oriented as players chase down an arch enemy.  I think the thrilling hunt combined with the cool new options make this one of the more entertaining DLC updates.
