Empire of Sin gets Hunt for Aurora DLC out of nowhere, five years after release
In a surprising move, new DLC has just been made available for Empire of Sin with the Hunt for Aurora Expansion. Nintendo Switch players can grab it now.
This comes as a surprise as there hasn’t been a peep about the game until this week. Empire of Sin first launched at the tail end of 2021, and there hasn’t been any new content since the following year.
As for the new content, there’s a new playable Boss from across the Atlantic, a new class of Gangster, new mission chains focused around a diamond heist, and a loyal canine companion.
Here’s some additional information:
In Empire of Sin: Hunt for Aurora, players will meet Robin Kray, the latest mob boss from across the pond, and his crime partner Sylvia Taylor, who bring their flair for the dramatic – and a taste for danger – to Chicago. Together, they’re chasing the famous Aurora diamond, and nothing will stand in their way. Ambitious mobsters can now try a new dual-wielding combat style and use Robin’s cunning leadership to leave a lasting mark on the city’s criminal underworld.
