What do Curious Expedition 2 and the SteamWorld series have in common? They’re both published by the same company, Thunderful! And that’s why it should not come as a surprise that the former is getting collab. content with SteamWorld Heist in the Robots of Lux DLC!

The Robots of Lux DLC for Curious Expedition 2 will be released on September 15th. It adds two new characters as expedition leaders: Captain Piper Faraday (from SteamWorld Heist) and the Naturalist, along with more additional content such as new recruitable characters, a new location, and more.

Here’s a trailer for that DLC:

Here’s some details and the list of key features for the Robots of Lux DLC, along with some screenshots:

In Curious Expedition 2: Robots of Lux, push the boundaries of engineering and science and navigate your way around Paris to uncover new truths. The ever-inventive nature of Lux Lab’s Edibot has torn a hole into the SteamWorld Universe and sucked in some new explorers along for the ride. In Curious Expedition 2: Robots of Lux players can take control of everyone’s favourite steam-powered Pirate, Captain Piper Faraday.
The DLC also unveils the Naturalist expedition leader, a new character lead addition to the Curious Expedition 2 universe. The Naturalist has the power of taming wildlife and this new ability will change the way to approach each adventure, giving your encounters a beasty wild twist to the unexpected.
This collaboration DLC also features brand new recruitable characters, a new location in Paris, new equipment and new items. Once the DLC is activated it will expand possibilities across the entire game, both in Campaign Mode and Director Mode.

2 expedition leaders: Piper Faraday from SteamWorld Heist and the Naturalist, who can tame almost any animal in the game (including the Giant Crab!) using Edibot’s new Luxballs.
3 recruitable humanoids: Billy Gill & Valentine Butterbolt (from SteamWorld Heist) and the Yeti.
1 recruitable animal (mountable): Robot Chameleon.
1 Paris location: Old Theatre, where you can freeze a character for later use and shop for robotic team members and equipment.
3 pieces of equipment: Shield Belt, Plasma Spider, PR3-S5.
2 pieces of pack animal equipment: Tesla Coil, Buzz Saw.
7 items: Battery, Prototype Remote Control, Field Kitchen, EdiBot Map, Coffee, Coffee Beans, Artificial Meal.
