On top of all the other stuff, PlayStation users also get a new Strike cooperative mission set on Mars, as well as a handy new Exotic — the rarest class of gear in the game — shotgun. The Strike, called The Undying Mind, sends up to three players back into the Black Garden, the site of the game’s final story mission, in pursuit of a “Vex machine-beast.” The new boss, pictured above, resembles the shielded Vex Hydra enemy — a mega version of which is already a boss in one of the game’s existing Strikes — only this one is all green and vine-y.
The Exotic shotgun gives players an opportunity to rain apocalyptic hell down on their opponents. Called “The 4th Horsemen” (reference to the Bible’s horsemen of the apocalypse), this four-barreled shotty sports a five-shot clip and a higher rate of fire than most other shotguns in the game. It’s also got the Final Round buff, which imparts bonus damage to the final round fired in a clip, and the Return to Sender buff, which returns bonus ammo to the weapon’s magazine for each kill scored.
