Developer Total Control has completed work on the latest Space Hulk update, which will add co-op to the PC, Mac, Linux, and iPad versions at no extra charge. Billed as 'Space Hulk 1.5,' the free update will allow four players to join forces across all existing multi-squad missions, pitting three players against one of their friends.

The announcement was made earlier today on Space Hulk's Steam page. In Space Hulk co-op, each player controls a single Terminator squad, trying to take down the Genestealer controlled by another human. Games should also be able to kick off faster, thanks to a new lobby system.

Full Control has also accompanied this new feature with a new five-mission DLC campaign, called Harbinger of Torment, for PC, Mac, and Linux players.

To celebrate the arrival of co-op and the new campaign, Space Hulk is now 75% off on Steam from now until Saturday.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
