Back when PlatinumGames held its Kickstarter for The Wonderful 101: Remastered, one of the stretch goals that backers were able to reach was a set of DLC featuring Luka as its main character, aptly titled Luka’s Mission. Even though it hasn’t been detailed up until this point, PlatinumGames has finally decided to share a small minute-long sneak peek at this DLC.
Sadly, there aren’t too many details to latch onto from this video, but it does provide a first look at a development build for the DLC. It will be a 2D side scrolling adventure game, and we can see a focus on platforming and shooting elements in the video. Again, no additional details or release date were confirmed, but it’s good to see that work is steadily progressing on these last few Kickstarter goals.
