I didn't vibe too much with the base game of Ion Fury, it felt like an overly drawn out game that was lacking in variety and had a really underwhelming final level. This expansion fixes all of that.

Levels are still sprawling, filled to the brim with secrets, but the game doesn't draw out for long. There's more enemy types and the designers are way less afraid to throw tougher encounters at you that aren't just spammy. To add on to this, we have the hover bike sections which are really fun. I was disappointed when it turned out that only the first one is like an arcade driving game, where you have a timer and have to avoid obstacles, but even just using it as a regular vehicle in normal levels was cool.

Had a great time with this, they designed a way better paced campaign with this and the final boss even is an actual enemy. I'm still not the fondest of the characters and all, but the game itself finally clicked for me when I gave this DLC a go, great fun.

It's a pretty good sequel to Silver Thread. Unlike its predecessor, the ending you get is determined by a hidden points sytem. Instead of choosing between what's actually just 2 options, you must make sure your actions and choices are on the right track so the mystery is actually solved. Showing the wrong piece of evidence or using the wrong logic will lose you points, and cost you the real ending.

There's more characters and both Alicia and Beaford return. The game's still really short, but there's a bigger opportunity to flesh out the characters and set up things for the next chapter. If you liked Silver Thread's vibe but just wished there was that little bit more to its gameplay and story, this is exactly it, and it even sets up more to come.
