Double Fine Bringing Mars, Bears, Loot to Trenched

And by Trenched, of course, we mean Iron Brigade, the new worldwide name for Trenched.

No Caption Provided

If you’ve already pushed back the technological menace in Iron Brigade (er, Trenched), Double Fine Productions is preparing the first set of downloadable content, Rise of the Martian Bear.

The studio revealed the first details on the content at a small event in San Francisco last Friday.

Rise of the Martian Bear will include four new missions set on Mars, and presumably an explanation for why we’ve left Earth’s atmosphere. If it don't want to provide one, I'm cool with that, too. And, yes, there will be bears.

There’s no release date for Rise of the Martian Bear, but Double Fine said it wouldn’t be far off.

Before that happens, however, Trenched has to become Iron Brigade. Alongside the title update that makes the name change official (the result of a copyright dispute), players will gain access to new loot and a survival game mode.

I'm sad that the DLC is not under water and called Drenched. Also the lack of a release date is not surprising as there is still no info on when it's coming out for those in Europe.

Great, now continue porting Brutal Legend, Stacking, and Trenched to PC since Costume Quest is now on steam and THQ isn't stopping you now.

I think they're going to need Russian Martian Batman to win this fight!

Edit: I am displeased that I was not the first to drop the RMB bomb. I shouldn't be surprised though.

There Will Be Bears was not as critically acclaimed as its predecessor, but it struck a chord with the Russian-Martian Batman demographic
