Cairn's Free 'Deep Water' DLC Hits October 29

Ready to climb higher and dive deeper? Cairn, the survival climbing adventure that's been testing your grip and your nerves, is getting a brand-new free DLC called 'On the Trail: Deep Water' – and it lands on October 29.

If you've already conquered the base game's treacherous peaks, this is your excuse to strap back in. The DLC is completely free, so there's no reason not to check it out. Just mark your calendar for the 29th and prepare for whatever watery twists the developers have in store.

We don't have all the details yet on exactly what 'Deep Water' adds – new routes? New gear? New ways to plummet to your doom? – but the name alone suggests things are about to get a lot more... fluid. Given Cairn's focus on realistic climbing and survival, we'd bet on some damp, dangerous new environments to explore.

What we do know is that it's coming soon and it won't cost you a penny. That's the kind of DLC we can all get behind. Whether you're a seasoned Cairn veteran or someone who's been waiting for the right moment to jump in, October 29 is looking like a great day to start your next expedition.
