THQ Nordic has revealed that Destroy All Humans! 2 launches August 30th on Xbox Series X|S! The next-gen-only remake of the second Destroy All Humans title arrives roughly two years after the first remake, bringing these two cult classics into the modern era.
We do find it a little odd that this remake is a next-gen exclusive, amongst countless cross-gen releases, but we'll take it nonetheless! The publisher has also revealed multiple editions of the game, and a handy little chart breaking down what each package contains.
Tucked in that chart you'll notice 'Clone Carnage', which is actually a standalone spin-off to Destroy All Humans! 2. Announced alongside this release date for DAH2, Clone Carnage will bring four player co-op action to proceedings, featuring four game modes across six unique maps, separate to the main campaign.
However, this is where things get a little confusing. If you're a next-gen player, you can get Clone Carnage for free, right now, by pre-ordering Destroy All Humans! 2. However, Clone Carnage is also available on Xbox One, even though DAH2 itself isn't, so if you want to play the co-op spin off on Xbox One, you'll be best picking it up on its own for $12.99/£9.99.
As for why the spin-off works across generations but Destroy All Humans! 2 is next-gen only? We're not quite sure. Either way, the remade sequel launches August 30th on Xbox Series X|S, and Clone Carnage is out now.

The Clone Carnage thing is explained by the fact that it's DLC for the first game, not the second, which is also why it's out now.
Loved this game such a shame I won't be able to get it there's absolutely no reason this game couldn't run on PS4 & Xbox one
@clvr so it's a paid dlc for the first game thats available on last gen aswell as current gen consoles that you get for free if you pre order the second game thats only available on current gen consoles..
I'll be enjoying this on my Xbox Series S!
@Would_you_kindly Buy an Xbox Series S, it's Incredible! You won't be disappointed and you'll get all Next Gen. Games without trying to find the ps5 or Series X. I Highly recommend the Xbox Series S! It's so smooth, quiet, and so much Better than both the xbone and ps4 put together!
@NintendoEternity I don't want a series S because I like to have a disk drive after seeing one of dezzys comments about series X being largely available in the UK now I checked online & it is easy to get atm unfortunately I can't afford one right now but when I have the money I'll probably go for the series X instead of the ps5
@Would_you_kindly sounds good. Series X is definitely the better choice in the long run, especially with Big Exclusives coming out for Microsoft.
