You can disarm these for crafting materials, but one wrong move and you're blown sky-high. You'll also need to worry about mines loosed into the waters by attacks on the Russian stockpiles during the war.
There are new foes too, such as a massive giant bat that travels with a swarm of smaller ones. For example, the zombie-like Humanimals will hide underwater and camouflage themselves with moss to try and ambush you in waterlogged locations. However, enemies will attack you in new ways that fit the setting. Like the base game, the DLC is structured nonlinearly, with an emphasis on exploration and finding gear upgrades and lore. Thankfully, the DLC also brings several fresh gameplay experiences to the table. Of course, a new setting is nothing without the appropriate gameplay design to accompany it.
