The second DLC, Nyakuza Metro, is more of a “goodie pack,” featuring 10 new Time Pieces, a new “stickers” customization options, a new Baseball Bat weapon, new badges, and even more flairs, dyes, and camera filters.

In addition to the above expansions, local split-screen co-op multiplayer will be implemented to the title for free.
