Sony revealed InFamous: First Light during their E3 conference, focusing on Fetch, one of the super powered conduits that Delsin encounters during Second Son.
Taking place in the conduit prison of Curdun Cay and the area around it before the events of the game, players will be able to explore a whole new environment detailing Fetch’s past in between her initial arrest and her eventual arrival in Seattle.
Bringing back her trademark neon powers, First Light promises to give Fetch a whole new way to control these powers compared to Delsin’s abilities in the main game. In addition, you’ll be able to get your inner photographer out with the ability to take pictures of the city as you travel.
The best news is that if you traded in your copy of the main game but still want to experience Fetch’s adventure, this DLC will be completely standalone, not requiring the original to be able to play. With that said, Sony and Sucker Punch are sweetening the pot by promising exclusive content for those who own both.
During the show, I was excited to see Fetch get her own content for two reasons. One, her powers were the best ones in the game BY FAR, making me hate having to use anything else through the second half of Delsin’s game. Needless to say, I’m excited to see what twist this content will put on her abilities, (not to mention the amazing visual effects that come with it). And two, Second Son was sorely lacking in backstory, so while it would have been nice to experience it in the main game, I’m still happy to finally delve into the past of at least one of these characters.
Are you still tearing up Seattle on your PS4, or are you ready to experience the horrors of Curdun Cay? First Light will hit the Playstation Store in August.
