Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Stronghoof – a new fighter arrives in Them’s Fightin’ Herds

It’s coming up to a year since Them’s Fightin’ Herds delivered a new, rather unique, fighting experience to Xbox, PlayStation and Switch. But as the anniversary approaches, the fighting roster expands as Stronghoof begins to unleash the most magical of attacks. 

Available right now, either as a standalone individual purchase for those wanting to build out the base game or as part of the Season 1 Pass comes Stronghoof, the ninth character to join the fight. 

As you may suspect from our opening lines, Stronghoof is a Reindeer, a magical one who is capable of powering forward with ice attacks, utilising magical weaponry and more. And the best bit? He comes with a winter sprite – Vetr. If you have a copy of the base game to hand, you may well find that Stronghoof is one you need on your side. Or perhaps you’ll want that which has already arrived, with Season Pass 1 having already provided other options. 

Key features of the DLC include:

• • Additional playable character: “Stronghoof”
• • New stage: Reine Ramparts
• • Stronghoof Pixel Lobby avatar

What’s more, Them’s Fightin’ Herds will run for free between April 13th-16th on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, all as part of the Xbox Gold/Ultimate Free Play Days. Join then and you’ll be able to play through the first chapter of the story, or take to the online world. Oh how we love online fighters…

If you wish to know more about Them’s Fightin’ Herds then we highly recommend you grab a read of our full review. We dropped a (spoiler alert) 4/5 score on it, hyping the great design and visuals whilst we loved the fighting action itself. 

You can grab a copy of the game from the Xbox Store, playing on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. It’s also on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. 

DLC Description:
