✈️ What is the Night Shift? 🛠️
Some airports have a night shift. And airports with a night shift have two baggage inputs. More suitcases, more responsibility, but also more pay: for the unusual working hours, every valid piece of baggage earns you a night bonus.
You won't be entirely on your own. Walter Wachsam, the night watchman, supports you with valuable tips. Well, maybe they are not that valuable. But at least he is there. And for morale you have your cat Kosmo. Sure, she sleeps most of the time. But not always. Meow!
The Night Shift Update is free for everyone: October 1
With the Night Shift Update, Starville arrives on October 1, your first airport with two baggage inputs and a night bonus, plus new building parts, new modifiers, different working hours, and of course Walter and Kosmo. Once you have completed Hall 1 you can switch straight to Starville, no need to play through to Schinkenheim first. And the new building parts and modifiers are not just for the night: you can use them in every job, including the existing airports.
And for all of you who have long collected more money and skill points than you can spend: with the Night Shift Update you can put both into permanent upgrades that give you a head start every time you take on a job at a new airport. More on that in the patch notes for the update.
The Night Shift DLC
Up for more night shifts? That's what the DLC is for: three more airports in the night shift, each with its own layout and its own challenges. Together we expect over 10 hours of additional playtime, for the price of a large cappuccino. ☕
