14 DAY TRIAL // inXile has just announced the second and final expansion to Wasteland 3 will arrive on October 5. The new piece of content is called Cult of the Holy Detonation and will be available for just $7 on PC (via Steam and GOG), Xbox, and PlayStation, or as part of the Wasteland 3 Colorado Collection for $60, which includes the base game and both expansions.
Keep in mind that the Xbox Game Pass membership doesn’t give you free access to this expansion, but you will receive a 10% discount if you want to purchase Cult of the Holy Detonation.
Cult of the Holy Detonation introduces players the iconic Cheyenne Mountain complex. They will be given a first look at what’s inside the bunker inside the mountain that was meant to survive a post-nuclear war.
In Cult of the Holy Detonation, players are thrown in the middle of a war between two cults, one crazier than the other. The mutant cults worship an ancient deity they call the Holy Detonation, a nuclear explosion held in stasis.
It’s unclear how the nuclear explosion came to be, but the Detonation’s energy could power Colorado Springs for hundreds of years, or level it in an instant. Obviously, the two cults have different opinions about who should be allowed to honor their god, so you’ll have to punch your way to the altar by all means necessary.
As they face overwhelming odds, the Rangers will need to shut down reactors, clear ventilation systems, and engage in defensive countermeasures to prevent an unending tide of dangerous mutants and machines within the military bunker.
Cult of the Holy Detonation not only feels, but it truly is one last mission of the Rangers in Colorado, at least until Wasteland 4 is announced. inXile will be offering fans of the franchise a preview of the expansion in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for more.
