House of the Dead: OVERKILL – Extended Cut – Creeping Flesh Level Reveal

[Commander Fury]

Not content with simply revealing the <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/08/01/house-of-the-dead-overkill-naked-terror-revealed/">first exclusive level</a> for the PS3 release of <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/house-of-the-dead-overkill/">The House of the Dead: OVERKILL – Extended Cut</a>, I’m back to give you the scoop on the second one too. Set in the cosy confines of an slaughterhouse taken over by a meaty disease of sorts, Creeping Flesh delivers you more of the additional awesome content we’ve lovingly added to the extended, and definitive, edition of OVERKILL.

 

We pick up the story with Varla and Candy again, and this time circumstances lead them to the local slaughterhouse. I’m not going to spoil any of the story or the details around what leads them there, but let’s just say it’s the standard House of the Dead fare; there are guns, motives of revenge and mutants galore, all wrapped up with grindhouse styling.

 

As you can see from the above image, there is something of a meaty infestation starting to take hold inside the building, and internally we’ve affectionately referred to this as the meat wall (there is also a meat tunnel later in the level, so that’s something to look forward to). Varla and Candy find themselves fighting amongst this meat wall, and as they proceed through the ‘meat factory’ they’ll be forced to take action against the new mutants shown above too. These mutants take the expression ‘meat shield’ to a new level, seeing as the additional flesh they’re lugging around makes them slightly more impervious to gunfire than your standard mutants.
