Indie smash PowerWash Simulator is getting Warhammer 40,000 DLC, due for release later this year.
  Get ready to hose the muck off a Space Marineā€™s shoulder pads ā€“ PowerWash Simulator is getting an unexpected bit of DLC based on the Warhammer 40K universe. ā€œClean up the Grim Darkness of the Far Future when Warhammer 40,000 comes to PowerWash Simulator,ā€ reads a bit of blurb shared by developer FuturLab. ā€œAs humanity stands at the edge of what could be its darkest age, could you wash away the grime to reveal a brighter future?ā€ Other than this, we donā€™t know too much else about the DLC as yet; the teaser trailer below is little more than a logo reveal. A roadmap posted on Twitter (thanks, RPS) gives an idea of when the 40K expansion will release; itā€™ll emerge in Q4 this year (so between October and December, month fans), after a couple of free updates and another, so far unannounced bit of paid DLC. As well as being a satisfying and oddly soothing hose-ā€™em-up, PowerWash Simulator is rapidly becoming one of the most eclectic experience in gaming. Weā€™ve already seen free expansions take place in Lara Croftā€™s manor, Final Fantasy 7ā€²s Midgar, and most recently, Bikini Bottom thanks to last monthā€™s SpongeBob Squarepants DLC. Updates aside, PowerWash Simulator is also coming soon to VR ā€“ FuturLab gave us the guided tour of PowerWash Simulator VR last month, and a few control niggles aside, we were properly impressed by it. Publisher nDreamsā€™ vice president David Corless also neatly summed up just why PowerWash Simulator has been such a success following its launch last year. “It’s such a relaxing mindfulness experience,” Corless said, “and there’s something about doing a menial task but seeing immediate results, and then the feeling you get from actually completing something – it’s lovely.”
