Co-op horror game fans have a new release to playthrough right now, as Reanimal has shadow-dropped its first story DLC. Reanimal initially released back in February from the original developers of Little Nightmares 1 and 2, quickly becoming one of the best horror games of the year. Players looking to continue the story of Reanimal can jump into The Prisoner DLC right now, with two more DLCs planned to launch in the coming months.
Reanimal – The Prisoner DLC is Available Now
Revealed during the THQ Nordic Showcase 2026, The Prisoner debuted as the first story DLC for Reanimal. Features of the DLC include:
- Two new playable characters
- Unparalleled atmospheric horror and a terrifying new threat
- New locations and unexpected twists on familiar places
- A new chapter in REANIMAL‘s minimalist, interpretive narrative experience
The Prisoner follows two new characters within Reanimal co-op gameplay: the Soldier and the Prisoner, as they fight to survive among the ravages of war. New bosses, such as the Flamethrower Solider, are also part of Reanimal‘s new DLC, along with three new Reanimal chapters for players to complete.
