    Story expansions are fun for most titles but this completely separate rogue-like experience is a refreshing way to revisit the Prey universe and is a justifiable purchase for all survival simulation fans.

    Those who yearn for more gadgets will be disappointed, as Mooncrash only offers a few, such as the admittedly cool Psychostatic Cutter energy dagger. However, the expansion pack’s achievement is more substantial than a bunch of doodads thanks to how it takes the promise of the base game, slices out the fat around it, and then serves up an experience as thrilling as it is challenging.

    Mooncrash is a DLC focused on the combat and survival aspect of Prey. In spite of the fact that these were not the best aspects of the game, Arkane Studios manages to offer something fresh and innovative that works so well.

    This is a very good expansion pack. Arkane shows off a creative variation of the main campaign - diverse and challenging.

    A great DLC that expands a great game. If you loved Prey, you should play Mooncrash.

    Silly load times aside, Prey: ooncrash is a great DLC addition to Prey that both compliments the main game and does something new with its best features.

    The roguelike elements, a variety of characters with unique playstyles, and quick run times make Mooncrash easily replayable and fun in short play sessions. While Prey was a solid title, Mooncrash is a quality portion of the game that is comparable to the main game.

    If at first you don’t succeed and find yourself horribly mauled to death by a lunar landshark, try try again. Prey: Mooncrash takes the core elements of Prey and tweaks them to provide a new and immersive experience that offers a fresh new spin on Arkane Studio’s fantastic game of spacebound paranoia.

    Mooncrash is an excellent piece of DLC that allows the more creative elements of Prey to shine.

    Prey Mooncrash is not what you expect but it's a great and surprising addition to the original game, that will please fans and will give you some good challenge.

    Mooncrash’s amazing level-design and its fascinating writing, combined with its rogue-lite mechanics makes it a special game, but we’d have liked it to push its own ideas even further. Then, it would have reached greatness.

    It's not the single-player expansion you were expecting, but Mooncrash will give you another juicy chunk of Prey's horror/sci-fi action, with a challenging loop-style gameplay.

    It is a fantastic addition to a game that already has a place in my all-time favorites list, and even if this is the very last we’ll see of Prey, or the big-budget immersive sim for awhile, I’m very glad Arkane has gone out on a bang.

How did Prey and Mooncfrash get missed is my question right now. I bought Prey last month for cheap because it had so much bad press when it came out from haters and it killed the chance this game had. Finished it and one of the best games I have ever played hands down. So that got me looking at the DLC Mooncrash and this even was better then Prey. I am in shock this bundle that plays exactly like a combination of Half Life, Bio Shock and Dishonored did not get the acclaim it should of. We are now in 2020 and these two games stand up 3 years later like they would if they were released today! BRAVO and people buy them for cheap and play these two masterpieces of gaming art. Incredible!!! Full Review »

    One of the best DLC's for Bethesda games. One of the best games in rougelite games.
