Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble

Area35 have confirmed that the DLC for Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble, announced earlier this week for Japan, is also coming to Europe and North America on March 12th.

Here’s some details about both pieces of DLC:

Caesar’s Rescue (Free)

Wargroove’s very own doggy Commander Caesar, bounds and barks his way into the world of TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE as part of a FREE-to-download campaign DLC, made possible by a special collaboration with UK-based indie developer Chucklefish. TINY METAL’s positivity-fuelled Nora must team up with everyone’s favourite magnificent and majestic canine to save the world in a brand-new campaign, which sees the world and denizens of the TINY METAL universe transform into pixelated versions of themselves in the signature Wargroove stylings.

• Play through a new campaign as you work with best boy Caesar to save the world help deliver him safely back home to the Kingdom of Cherrystone
• Caesar brings a brand-new visual style to the characters of TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE as pixilation spreads across the world
• DLC Campaign Special Rule: Players will be given an initial set of units which will be used throughout all FIVE DLC chapters and must use survivalist tactics to ensure as many units as possible make it through to the end. But don’t worry, Caesar’s mere presence is enough to inspire and guide troops through the toughest battles! 

Will of the Shogun (3.99€ / £3.59 / $3.99)

Will of the Shogun DLC launches the same day as Caesar’s Rescue and continues the TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE story in the form of Act 8, the next chapter of the main core TINY METAL: FMR campaign.  In addition to a brand new Act (complete with a whole additional story and missions), comes Legendary Battles which bring an additional host of Skirmish maps as well as a more challenging ‘Legendary’ difficulty mode, which will be coming to all existing available and new skirmish maps.

• Act 8 brings a whole new story to TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE
• Legendary Battles introduces an intense Legendary difficulty as well as additional Skirmish maps
