Each expansion offers new strategic options for the player’s NorTec Corporation defenders:

Grafting Lab includes cards to expand the NorTec base and upgrade the defenders by grafting biological enhancements.  Includes 1 “Grafting Laboratory Division card” and 5 each of six different item and upgrade cards.  This expansion releases in September, along with the Game Night Kit #1.

The Hive Expansion adds more attackers to the invading alien horde, as well as new items and upgrades.  This expansion releases in October.

Psychogenics Research introduces psychic abilities to the game through NorTec technology.  Includes 1 “Psychogenics Research Division” card and 5 each of six different item and upgrade cards. This expansion releases in November.

All four expansions are MSRP $14.99. As expansions, they require the base game to play (see “'XenoShyft Onslaught'”).

The Grafting Lab and Psychogenics Research expansions were included as “add on” items to the XenoShyft:  Onslaught Kickstarter campaign. 

CMON also recently began playtesting of its next large XenoShyft set:  XenoShyft:  Dreadmire, which will be a stand-alone core game that can be combined with the original XenoShyft:  Onslaught.  In this set, the players must work to resist the hostile weather and denizens of the Dreadmire marshlands.
