NCSOFT and Carbine Studios have been rolling out additional details about WildStar’s first ‘Ultra Drop’ – The Strain, continuing today with the announcement of the housing and customisation updates that will feature in this update.
What is the heck is the Strain you ask? Born in the depths of a mysterious Eldan laboratory, the Strain is a virulent biological anomaly that has begun to spread across planet Nexus. With the power to change life forms into terrifying, mutated abominations, the Strain is an unimaginably dangerous threat. All efforts to fight this nightmarish plague have met with failure.
Does it have anything to do with what happened to the Eldan? And can the universe be saved, or is it already too late? In The Strain, players will get the chance to turn their houses into horrifyingly elegant pads by adding items like bathtubs with claws, giant infected optical nerves, postulant purple barbs and more assorted grossness.
In addition, a couple new housing plugs will be available including a Strainmaw mat for your unwelcomed guests and a Phage Form Lab. If your character isn’t ghoulish enough, upgrade your wardrobe with some rot couture by collecting each piece of a new ravenous Strain costume. New Strain dyes are also available as well as a new Strain hoverboard.
