More BioShock 2, Just Cause 2 DLC Due Soon

7
A second batch of downloadable add-ons for both 2K Marin's shooter BioShock 2 and Avalanche's explosive Just Cause 2 will arrive on April 29, Microsoft has revealed.

BioShock 2's add-on, dubbed "Rapture Metro Map Pack" and priced at 800 Microsoft Points / $10, adds six new multiplayer maps along with a new multiplayer rank of fifty, two additional masks, three more achievements and a "Kill 'Em Kindly melee mode."

It's not known if this content is already on the disc, as the last batch of BioShock 2 DLC was, but given 2K Games' previous explanation, it's likely that at least some of it is.

Just Cause 2's "Black Market Aerial Pack," meanwhile, brings "a jet-sized set of new items"-- including the F-33 DragonFly Jet Fighter, Dual Parachute Thrusters and Multi-lock Missile Launcher--in exchange for 160 Microsoft Points / $2.

Thus far, the above prices and dates only apply to Xbox 360, though don't be surprised if the content hits PC and PlayStation 3 around the same time at the same price.

    I wonder if they're coming to PC?

      I think it should be on PC (if the latest monster truck DLC is any indication), the only thing is that it is now a paid DLC as opposed to free DLC (like the Ice cream truck).

      I think they are going the way of Capcom, charging for a bit addition to the game. Cant really say I like it where they are going with this....And I'm saying this for both PC and consoles. Those are additions to the game and you still have to purchase it in game and isnt important for any type of missions. It should be free.

      If it is the case of expansion pack (more story element, more levels, new area, in-the-game items, and combination of those), I could still understand why they want to charge for it.
