Twenty-three years later, the stop-motion animated film Chicken Run has received a sequel. Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget is out now on Netflix.

Even more surprisingly, the Academy Award-winning animation studio Aardman has collaborated with Bandai Namco to release a DLC pack for sim theme park game Park Beyond.

The DLC, also called Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, grants two new maps inspired by the locations from the film. The first map features the colorful amusement Fun-Land Farms that hides the processing plant, while the second features the hidden chicken village in the forest.

The DLC also adds over 280 new decorative items, including the fake scenery and impenetrable walls that hide the park’s sinister secret. We also get two new flat rides (with “impossification”), 13 new prefabs, and new scrapyard coaster tracks.

Park Beyond is also receiving some free content with Patch 2.3, which releases alongside the DLC. The Patch adds the Monorail track type, and a High Fantasy theme of items, entertainers, and rides, as well as the new Wooden Coaster.

Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (and Park Beyond) is available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. Players who pre-ordered Park Beyond can claim the DLC for free. It’s rated E for Everyone.

Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget is streaming now on Netflix. It’s rated PG.
