Last night's edition of GameTrailers TV contained a quick segment on the topic of Killzone 2 downloadable content, with Guerrilla on-hand to talk a bit about it.

The upcoming "Steel & Titanium" pack will add two new maps to the game. One map, Wasteland Bullet, will feature fast-moving trains that players can hop on, and the other, Vetka Cruiser, is set on one of the ISA's big battle cruisers, the New Sun.

A bit of info about a second pack was also mentioned, and it sounds like this pack will have a retro theme, perhaps offering some upgraded versions of maps from the previous Killzone.

The first pack is due sometime this April. For more, check out the archive of GT's TV show.

When he takes that helmet off, I am just going to shoot him in his stupid bald head.

Awesome, now I hope they don't charge a lot for this.

I'm not paying for this.

what if its only like $5, its supposed to include some new features too. Compared to COD4's 4 maps that cost $10, with no new features, i'd say that would be a reasonable price.

Nice, hope it's at a reasonable price for 2 maps.

2 maps for 5 or 6$ ??

i was saying, just yesterday to my friend that i wouldn't buy a pack of only 2 maps for 5$

I can't believe people can even stand to play Killzone 2...Sure it has nice graphics, but the gameplay is horrible!

Dude, have you even played it?

This is probably going to end up being overpriced, like most current DLC.
macot79on April 10, 2009 at 3:06 p.m.
I hope they are free.
LiveOrDie1212on April 10, 2009 at 3:09 p.m.
i'll get it if its between $5-$8. if its over than that, no thanks.
FuzzYLemoNon April 10, 2009 at 3:13 p.m.
Not interested unless they're free. DLC is shady business.
Meatsimon April 10, 2009 at 3:24 p.m.
It's a rip off unless it's free.
NukeGoBoomon April 10, 2009 at 3:30 p.m.
Please make this free...I love the multi and dont have PSN space bucks :(

new features? Like what? I only heard that from the guy (who obviously didn't have much skill with english) on GTTV and I think that was just a bit of a translation thing. Although, if you heard it elsewhere confirmed, lemme know.


And still, you know their going to charge for this. Its one of the few games on the PS3 that are going to get anythign for DLC. And pretty much the only exclusive with any potential for DLC.

I'm in the minority it seems when it comes to thinking Killzone 2 was an average experience (SP wise) at best.

The MP is addicting and hella fun and yes the graphics are amazing but  the gameplay is typical and the storyline is meh

If this is like 5 dollars then I can get it, otherwise I cant afford it
