Within Temptation is the latest band to team up with Iron Maiden for an expansion of the Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beast mobile game. The collaboration is called The Purge and follows a story inspired by Within Temptation's 2020 single of the same name.

"This exciting collaboration has culminated in a dungeon event called 'The Purge' inspired by Within Temptation's 2020 single of the same name and a newly created character, Genesis. In this new storyline, Genesis teams up with the Different World iteration of Eddie – who was inspired by the lyrics, themes and imagery of Iron Maiden's 2006 track 'Different World' and the subsequent music video. This week-long event will take fans and players on a journey with Different World Eddie and Genesis, who's now been woven into the Legacy of the Beast lore, as mother of the Different World.

"Genesis has remained in isolation for thousands of years and through a network of caretakers- she has recently become aware of the instability that has overtaken her home. Now she sets off to find the root of the issue. Now Genesis, moving towards a stronghold of the Different World Machine God, runs into Different World Eddie – a shard of the Eternal who has adopted the Different World philosophy. Together will they breach the Machine God's forces and stamp out a small part of the hivemind's plan?"

The expansion goes live at 8PM EST on September 19 and is free to play through both Apple's App Store and Google. Within Temptation will also be on tour with Iron Maiden in a few weeks, starting in South Dakota.
