FuturLab, in collaboration with Square Enix Collective, has announced a new downloadable content (DLC) pack for PowerWash Simulator, titled the “Shrek Special Pack.” This DLC introduces five new maps inspired by the DreamWorks Animation’s Shrek franchise. Players will have the opportunity to clean iconic locations such as Shrek’s Swamp, Duloc, Dragon’s Lair, Hansel’s Honeymoon Hideaway, and the Fairy Godmother’s Potion Factory. The pack also includes a custom knight character model equipped with a sword-themed power washer, enhancing the thematic experience.

The Shrek Special Pack aims to provide a unique and engaging experience for new and existing players by combining the whimsical elements of the Shrek universe with the gameplay mechanics of PowerWash Simulator.

The DLC is set to be available on multiple platforms, including PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
