The game update and Apocalypse Pack DLC for Zombie Driver HD has finally arrived on XBox Live Arcade.

The new update fixes screen tearing issues that some people have been experiencing and improves frame rate which makes squashing zombies super smooth. The patch also fixes a number of smaller issues.

The Apocalypse Pack includes two awesome cars available in all game modes, plus an extra Slaughter Mode map – the Military Base.

Both of the new cars are guest appearances from EXOR Studios’ earlier project – D.I.P.R.I.P., which was a multi-player car combat game released in 2008 as a free Source Engine mod. The first of the two is called the “Chaos 126p” and it’s a small and nimble monster truck (as far as monster trucks can be small, anyway). It’s very fast and handles incredibly well in tight corners. The second one is a huge custom made truck with jet engine exhausts called the “Auroch”. It can ram through anything on it’s path, has lot’s of nitro and can carry up to 10 passengers in the Story Mode.

The Military Base Slaughter mode map is one of the larger levels and as the name implies it is based in an abandoned army depot. If Slaughter Mode was about ice skating one could say that it’s the perfect place for making beautiful loops in harmony with soul touching music, but fortunately it’s not so you can exchange loops for insanely long combos and soul touching music for the sound of metal plowing through hundreds of zombies.
