‘Gravity Rush 2’ Free DLC Features Raven’s Backstory, New Enemies

Developers SIE Japan Studio and Project Siren are already rolling out the new story DLC for their gravity-defying action-adventure “Gravity Rush 2.” The new free content is said to focus on Raven’s backstory, which means players can now assume the role of Raven once the DLC’s been installed into the PS4-exclusive title.

Last Tuesday, the PlayStation Store was updated to include Raven’s free story DLC. Entitled “Gravity Rush 2: The Ark of Time - Raven’s Choice,” the new DLC is said to shed more light about Kat’s partner. The new content also has a connection to the first installment in the franchise, since Raven will have to battle the Lost Children who got trapped inside the ark at the end of the original “Gravity Rush.”

While the developers did not reveal other details about “Raven’s Choice,” we learned from Reddit user Rosc that the free story DLC actually comes with new enemy types, two new final bosses to go against and there’s also a brief appearance by the main story’s villain. In addition, as opposed to what the developers said that the update adds at least 5 hours more gameplay, the Redditor stated that two hours would already be enough to finish the new content.

Reddit user Rosc also claimed that players might be disappointed with the free DLC as it opens a “pretty big plot hole” in the games, especially since it is set at a time in-between the events in the first and second “Gravity Rush.” The Redditor also pointed out that the final bosses are “really poorly tuned” and a big part of the DLC is “bad, floaty platforming with no powers.”

To have access to “Raven’s Story,” one should first install the latest patch for “Gravity Rush 2,” which is version 1.10. Once this patch is installed, one can now download the free DLC from the PlayStation Store.
