Operation Flashpoint will be supported with new DLC in a "matter of weeks", the game's executive producer Sion Lenton has revealed.

"We’ve got some very ambitious plans with DLC – our first pack is coming up in a matter of weeks," Lenton told the Telegraph. "We’ll also have title updates coming up because once the game’s out there, we’ll need to get feedback from the people who are playing it, and if need be make a few adjustments and tweaks."

Lenton believes getting a game into stores is now just the beginning.

"It’s a really different type of market now; I remember five or six years ago, you’d get a game, finish it, put it back on the shelf and that was it," explained Lenton. "But now it’s almost as though the game’s release is just the beginning, really. Ours is a game that lends itself very well to expansion – there will be weapons packs, map packs – all sorts of things we can do to get our product out there."

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is out now for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Check out the VideoGamer.com review for more details.
