Following the launch of Season 6 last December, the latest SnowRunner update has landed.
Available to download on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, update 16.1 adds a host of new content including a new truck and modding tools for Nintendo Switch, as well as bug fixes improving the experience. Let’s dig in.
Crocodile Pack DLC
The main highlight of update 16.1 is the Crocodile Pack DLC that adds a new vintage truck to tackle unforgiving terrain in Saber Interactive’s off-road simulation game.
Nicknamed the “Crocodile” due to its distinctive shape and deep engine noise, the Step 33-64 is a versatile truck that comes with three unique add-ons. These allow you to rescue vehicles with maintenance and fuel add-ons or haul cargo with the side-board.
SnowRunner’s Crocodile Pack is available on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC for £3.29.
Modding tools for Nintendo Switch
In addition, update 16.1 includes a set of modding tools for the Nintendo Switch version of the game ahead of the upcoming Season 7 Compete & Conquer update. As with PS4 and Xbox One mods, Switch mods will be reviewed by the developers before being published.
When Season 7 launches, players can subscribe to and download their favourite mods by signing into their mod.io account.
Update 16.1 also brings bug fixes, improvements to the UI, and more. You can find all the changes in the patch notes below.
