The Typing of the Dead: Overkill is a modern update of the classic typing-instruction game. And it being a modern game, it has modern features, like patches and DLC. Today, the game has been updated with a free multiplayer patch that adds a two-player co-op story mode for you dueling typists. However, there's also a paid DLC pack--the first of "many," according to Sega. The Shakespeare of the Dead DLC costs $2.99 and replaces all the current words and phrases in the game with lines from Shakespeare's plays. According to Sega, it's but "the first of many planned lexicon packs" due "over the coming months." Check out our gallery for more screenshots:

  I enjoyed tTotD:O but I can't imagine ever wanting to spend money on just more words

    I think it's a neat idea, but for something like the Shakespeare pack I'd rather it just be the full plays that I could read while I'm typing.
