Following its release in December 2015, the popular video game "Just Cause 3" received its first DLC pack, which allows players to rule the sky in a jetpack. New reports suggest that Avalanche Studios is going to release another expansion pack called, "Mech Land Assault."

Game publisher Square Enix has already announced the DLC update to be release on June 3 for season pass holders. According to a report by GameSpot, players who do not have the season pass will have to wait for June 10 for the update to become available in the market.

The expansion will definitely give fans of the open world action-adventure video game an entirely new experience once it becomes downloadable. Gamers will have the chance to explore the island of Lacrima on a humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles or mechs.

"Defended by huge powerful Mechs, Rico will need the new Bavarium Power Core rifle to disable their shields and hijack them," the press release reads. "Once inside, Rico can use their powerful cannons and the GRIP Gravity Guns to hurl and smash the enemy into pieces."

According to the report, players will infiltrate Lacrima to check on an abandon prison camp, which is said to be run by the mercenary group, Black Hand.

The game's senior producer, Tobias Andersson, said that gamers will have the opportunity to take Rico in a completely new but exciting adventure once they finish downloading the DLC.

"We wanted to shake up how Rico interacts with his environment in a similar way," Andersson, said. "The new Mechs allow Rico to throw enemies, vehicles and chaos objects around like tennis balls--increasing the scope for physics-based fun."

Meanwhile, the "Mech Land Assault" expansion will be sold at $11.99. The expansion pass for "The Air, Land & Sea," which includes the first and the third DLC packs can be bought for $24.99.

The third and final DLC will be called, "Bavarium Sea Heist." According to reports, it will be rolled out during the end of summer.
