New DLC available for Transformers

360 News | Prime content.
This week has been incredibly busy as far as DLC is concerned. So far, we've been treated to new content for Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Mafia II and now, Transformers: War for Cybertron. A press release from Activison has revealed what players can find in this multiplayer expansion.

The 'Map and Characters Pack 2' contains, unsurprisingly, new maps and new characters. A total of five new maps have been added to enhance this robotic experience, along with two very special characters. Here are the details direct from Activision:

Escalation Mode:

  • 'Pulse' is an Autobot map and allows players to take a journey inside the Decepticon giant Trypticon, challenging fans to explore his twisted interior corridors to overload the central power core located within.
  • 'Static' is a Decepticon map that thrusts players into a bevy of multi-level rooms riddled with environmental traps that can be used for their advantage.


Competitive Multiplayer:

  • 'Horizon' is a picturesque statuary overlooking the war-torn Autobot home city of Iacon, complete with wide open courtyards and tight spaces for close quarters combat.
  • 'Sector' is an old maintenance facility used by the Decepticons during the legendary war and allows for open vehicle navigation, especially dive-bombing jets and those with long range weapons.
  • 'Metropolis' is set high above the clouds and drops players straight into the bombed out ruins of a high rise Iacon city building. Liquid energon drips from broken pipes and sparking electricity crackles from severed wires as it was once served as a fierce central battleground on Cybertron.


Characters:

  • Zeta Prime
  • Dead End


This DLC is available right now for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, priced at 800 MSP (AU$13) and AU$15.95 respectively.

Pretty standard DLC rates to be honest...but that doesn't mean they're worth the price of course.

I wont be getting it unfortunately. If it were a single player expansion, then maybe I would but multiplayer - no thanks.
