'Tis the season for festive DLC, and Hello Games is getting in on the action by giving Joe Danger: Special Edition owners a free serving of Santa Danger and his Christmas QuadBike on December 21. See how Ol' Saint Nick handles the track in this DLC preview.

More than just a decorative skin, the holiday DLC will swap coins for presents and challenge players with learning a whole new vehicle in the form of Santa Danger's Christmas Quadbike.

"I think of the Quad bike a bit like unlocking Luigi in Mario Galaxy," explained Hello Games founder Sean Murray in a press release. "Suddenly the controls and handling are different, and every level has to be relearned and replayed. The ATV is faster for instance, but very bouncy."
