From Space - Mission Pack: Molten Iron (DLC)

From Space is a top-down co-op action shooter built around squads of up to four players clearing waves of alien infestation across a post-apocalyptic Earth. The Molten Iron Mission Pack is a DLC expansion developed by Triangle Studios and published by Curve Games, adding new mission content to that foundation. If you haven't touched the base game yet, the short version is this: it's a twin-stick-adjacent shooter with stylized, almost cartoonish visuals, over-the-top weaponry, and an emphasis on playing loud and fast alongside friends. Molten Iron slots into that same rhythm rather than reinventing anything. As someone who usually gravitates toward smaller, quieter experiences, I want to be honest about where From Space sits as a package. The base game carries a Mixed rating on Steam, hovering around 68% positive, and the feedback patterns there matter for anyone considering whether this DLC adds enough. Players who enjoy the core loop, blasting alien hordes with friends in short sessions, generally find the mission packs a reasonable excuse to return. Players who bounced off the base game's repetition or thin solo experience will find nothing here to change their minds. Molten Iron, as the name suggests, leans into an industrial or volcanic aesthetic theme. The mission content follows the same structural logic as the base game: push through infested zones, use the available arsenal to thin the alien presence, and survive what the map throws at you. The weaponry in From Space leans deliberately excessive, which is part of its identity. That philosophy carries through here. If you like the feel of the guns and the visual feedback of clearing a screen, this pack gives you more arenas to do it in. The honest caveat is that this DLC was released very close to the base game's own launch window, which raises the familiar question of whether the content simply should have been included from the start. For players who have already put time into From Space and want a fresh set of objectives, Molten Iron is functional additional content that doesn't overstay its welcome. For players on the fence about the whole package, the mixed reception of the base game is the real thing to reckon with before spending anything on expansions. From a craft perspective, From Space is not a hand-stitched indie gem with a layered soundtrack and careful pacing. It's a session-based co-op shooter aimed at groups who want something quick, loud, and visually punchy. Molten Iron serves that audience. It doesn't try to be more than that, and there's a certain honesty in knowing exactly what you are. Whether that's enough depends entirely on what your squad is looking for on a given night.
