Orcs Must Die 2, the popular action strategy game from Robot Entertainment, will receive its third downloadable content pack later today, November 1, in the form of the “Are We There Yeti?” add-on, which brings new levels and monsters, as well as spells and costumes.

Orcs Must Die 2 delivered a great action strategy experience this summer, acting as a sequel to the already impressive first game, which came out last year.

Since its launch, developer Robot Entertainment has released several DLC packs and is now getting ready to debut the third one, in the form of the “Are We There Yeti?” one.

Like previous add-ons, the DLC contains new levels for the single-player campaign, fresh conversions for the Endless mode, as well as new spells, enemies, and costumes.

Check out all of the features of the “Are We There Yeti?” add-on for Orcs Must Die 2 below, via an official statement.

- Three Chilling New Levels - Venture to the frozen caverns of the north where new rifts are opening up. Defend the Yeti Den, The Hive, and the enormous Chilled Cavern against new enemies and old!

- New Endless Mode Conversions - Passages, Chilled Cavern, and fan favorite level The Tower have all been converted for Endless Mode action!

- A Deadly High-Five - Place the new Spike Wall along a hallway and surprise unsuspecting enemies when it springs outward, stabbing them in the face before tossing them through the air or over nearby ledges!

- Dwarven Missile Launcher - An explosive new secondary weapon that fires mana missiles, dealing out damage and tossing monsters in every direction.

- The Guardian Trinket - Your Paladins, Archers, and Dwarves have always had your back, and now you can repay the favor. Bring the Guardian Trinket with you to passively heal your Guardians. Use the new trinket's active ability to revive fallen Guardians for battle!

- New Creatures - Take cover from the enormous new Yetis as they charge through the rifts hurling frozen snowballs at your head! Keep your distance, though, because when the Yetis take enough damage, they become enraged, and will charge to attack you, leaping over any barricades that stand in their way. Don't spend too much time fighting the Yetis because the new Goblin Sappers will be rushing through the level to disable your traps! If a Goblin Sapper finds a trap to his liking, he explodes, disabling nearby traps for a brief time.

- New Character Costumes! - Inspired by two of the most prolific Orcs Must Die! 2 video-streamers, the latest set of costumes are a hat-tip to all of the incredibly passionate Orcs Must Die! community. Equip the new "Backdraft" costume for the War Mage or the "Skull Ninja" costume for the Sorceress.

The new DLC is out later today, November 1, for the game via Steam, for $4.99/€4.99.
