A lot of content cut from When Vikings Attack! is now available in the When Vikings Relax DLC, Sony announced today.

That content includes:

10 new vs. mode levels – Each one themed around recreational mayhem with a unique environmental hazard to watch out for.
Solo Survival mode – A new single player game mode where you face off against waves history’s greatest warriors, survive as long as you can and get to the top of the leaderboards.
New unlockable characters – Unlock 10 warriors in solo survival
6 new trophies – New specific challenges based around the DLC content to unlock

To mark the game’s Japanese release, there’s a new unlockable character, The Tired Oyaji, and a few new costumes inspired by Toro and Kuro.

The developers have also added Ad-Hoc support for PS Vita and improved the cross-platform invite system for play across PS3 and Vita.

Here’s a trailer of Viking relaxation in action:
