The DLC promises a deep dive into the aesthetics of the animated films, complete with alternate costumes and powerwasher skins that allow players to fully immerse themselves in the world of Wallace and Gromit.
This isn't the first time PowerWash Simulator has ventured into pop culture collaborations. The game has previously released DLCs inspired by series like Final Fantasy and Tomb Raider, along with numerous free content packs that add new levels and items. Last year's holiday pack is a testament to FuturLab's commitment to regularly updating the game with fresh content.
Interestingly, Wallace and Gromit's studio, Aardman Animations, has a rich history in the gaming industry, having produced multiple video game tie-ins based on its films. Characters from Aardman have also appeared in other titles. Adding to the studio's gaming portfolio, Aardman recently announced a project with Pokémon, set to release in 2027, which promises to blend their signature animation style with the world of Pokémon, much to the delight of both gaming and stop-motion enthusiasts.
