Platypus Reclayed Adds Free "Winter Mission" DLC

Holiday sale offers 25% off!

Sheffield, UK – December 18th, 2025 – Claymatic Games today announced the release of Winter Mission, the second free DLC expansion for Platypus Reclayed, the definitive reimagining of the cult-classic clay-animated shoot 'em up. The Expansion Pack, which bundles both available DLCs, is available today on PlayStation, with Nintendo Switch and Xbox versions to follow.

In this latest expansion, winter has its grasp on Mungola and throughout the icy borderlands the battle rages on. In this all new level from Anthony Flack and the Claymatic team you'll travel across iceberg-laden seas and snow-covered wilderness to do battle with a nasty - slightly vegetable-looking - boss.

Furthermore, PlayStation players can dive into the belated Spooky Season DLC today, with other consoles set to follow. With the help of a friendly witch and her trusted broomstick, you'll need your wits about you as bats, ghosts, giant pumpkins, and more attempt to give the local inhabitants of Colossatropolis some truly frightful nightmares

To commemorate this release, Platypus Reclayed is currently on sale for 25% off on Steam and Humble Store until January 5th and on Nintendo Switch until January 11th. The Xbox version will similarly be on sale for 25% from December 23rd-29th for Game Pass subscribers.

"We wanted to celebrate the season with some festive, wintry gameplay, so this free expansion will ring in the new year with some holiday spirit," said Anthony Flack, Lead Game Designer at Claymatic Games. "Think of it like a video game holiday special, ala Rudolph, only with more explosions!"
