Brotato, one of the highest rated roguelikes of all time on Steam, is getting its first DLC this Summer alongside a new four-player co-op update.
Announced during the Triple-i Initiative 2024 indie showcase, Brotato's first DLC is titled Abyssal Terrors and takes players down to the "abyssal depths" for 20 new waves of enemies and bosses "that will test even the most seasoned players." Abyssal Terrors also introduces 10 distinct potato characters, each with their own special abilities and playstyles. There are also 10 new weapons you can find and equip along the way as well as 30 new items to collect that should keep the gameplay feeling fresh.
Finally, arriving as a free update to all players around the ame time is Brotato's new four-player local co-op mode, which is exactly what it says on the tin. You and up to three friends can band together against spud-hating aliens in the same room and on the same screen. The co-op update also includes some balancing tweaks, fixes, and "new content to enrich the gameplay experience and ensure that Brotato continues to be a dynamic and engaging game for new and returning players alike."

Story-wise, there ain't much goin' on. You're the titular potato bro and you're forced into an intense top-down survival situation after crashing into a hostile alien planet. You've gotta love it.
