IRVINE, Calif. – Dec. 15, 2023 – PARK BEYOND™, published by Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc., in collaboration with the Academy Award®-winning animation studio Aardman, today released the Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World. This DLC celebrates the Netflix movie Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, releasing today as well. Watch the launch trailer for the DLC here: https://youtu.be/yq3Ndozm_0c
 
In this DLC, players will get access to two new maps inspired by Fun-Land Farms and the Chicken Village from the movie. The first is a vibrant and joyful world hiding the sinister business at hand, while the second takes players to the village in the forest! 
 
More than 280 new decorative items are included to help recreate the uncanny atmosphere of the Chicken Village, the Fun-Land Farms and the factory. Colorful fake grass hills, sun shaped arches and forest scenery, but also miradors and impenetrable walls are added for those who really liked the high security look of the factory. This Theme World also brings egg-citing new flat rides and their “Impossifications” as well as a coaster track, cars and modules, for even more fun for the visitors, and players to create the most unique parks.
 
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World is releasing alongside Patch 2.3, bringing the Monorail Track type and the new free High Fantasy theme, bringing extra new content, including scenery objects, entertainers, animatronics and more!
 
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Theme World is available for purchase now for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via STEAM®. As announced earlier this month, players who pre-ordered PARK BEYOND can claim this DLC for free.
