High On Life High On Knife DLC Out Now

Squanch Games’ High On Knife DLC is available today, giving High On Life fans an all-new adventure filled with laughs, scares, and a completely fictional story about how the convenience of same-day shipping inevitably normalizes corporate surveillance, reducing entire segments of a sentient population to box-flinging commodities – all for the sake of convenience. Plus, two all-new talking guns!

High On Knife is essentially a big new bonus episode set after the events of High On Life’s campaign. Your bounty-hunting hero comes home from adventuring, only to find a missed-package slip for a delivery meant for your knife companion, Knifey. Knifey convinces you to head to his home planet to pick up this mysterious package, and then a bunch of stuff happens. Funny stuff. And spooky stuff!

High On Knife features (amazing!) all-new performances from a variety of well-known actors and comedians, including:

  • Gabourey Sidibe (American Horror Story, Precious) as Mux, the sinister (and foul-mouthed) head of intergalactic shipping titan Muxxalon

  • Sarah Sherman (Saturday Night Live) as Harper, a chatty ex-military pistol with a dark origin story

  • Alec Robbins (Squanch’s head writer) as BALL, a new pinball-inspired gun operated cooperatively by a trio of gibberish-spewing little guys

  • Ken Marino (Party Down, The State) as an alien parasite that is going to be a part of your bounty hunter’s mission. Look, it’s going to attach itself to you, OK?

  • Michael Cusack (Smiling Friends, High On Life), reprising his role as Knifey

High On Life’s High On Knife DLC is now available for $14.99 on PC via Steam, the Xbox app, and Epic Games Store; Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S; and PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Players who don’t own High On Life ($39.99) can purchase a bundle with the base game and High On Knife for $49.99 on PC via Steam and Xbox Game Pass; Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S; and PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Xbox Game Pass subscribers on PC and console can purchase an exclusive Xbox Game Pass Bundle, which includes High On Life and High On Knife for $19.99.

High On Life follows the misadventures of an unmotivated high-school graduate who becomes Earth’s last hope following an alien invasion. These interstellar invaders are on a constant search for their next intoxicating experience, and, unfortunately, they discover that humans provide an exquisite high. The only solution is to become a bounty hunter, tracking down the kingpins in the alien cartel to stop their horrifying harvest. It makes sense in context, OK?!

The team at Hyperstrange is excited to announce that the iconic voice actor Stephen L. Russell joins the cast as the game’s playable marauder! Stealth, horror, immersive sim, and FPS all combine to make an interesting package, made even more special by a legendary addition. Let the man himself speak to you about his role in this nightmare and catch a new look at the final chapter of Blood West:

The next part of Blood West’s story is coming up later this year when the full game launches on December 5. It will be your time to explore the mountains as our cursed gunslinger, a region even deadlier than the mines and the swamp. New monstrosities show their face for the first time today, hoping your bones rattle with anticipation.

Stephen L. Russel is known for his stellar work as Garrett in the Thief games, Corvo in Dishonored 2, and Nick Valentine in Fallout 4. His voice adds a new layer to the wicked scenarios of Blood West, where our gunslinger will be heard commenting on the many trinkets, contraptions and messed-up looking beings he encounters. “With elements of challenging gameplay and stealth mechanics, I am thrilled to be part of it. And I hope you will be too!”, says Stephen in a new announcement video.

Blood West is an immersive wild west FPS where, as a revenant desperado, you take on the twisted demons and eldritch horrors, while you search for the means to end the curse that has befallen the frontier, and maybe find some peace for your wicked soul. One quest after another, the spirits of the land will lead you towards even greater challenges. And whatever your path may be – things will get rough. For hell is empty and all the devils are here!

With an overwhelmingly positive reception on Steam by players during its Early Access phase, with over 1,600 reviews and counting, Blood West is set to expand into its third and final chapter when it launches on December 5, 2023 and is currently available for $14.99 USD / 12.49€ / £11.49.
