BioShock 2 DLC detailed

Extensions to the single and multiplayer experience.

2K Games has announced details of its post-launch downloadable content plan for BioShock 2, which promises to extend and enhance the single and multiplayer experiences by adding more glimpses into the world of Rapture.

First out of the door will be the Sinclair Solutions Test Pack, available this March for Xbox 360 and Games for Windows LIVE (400 MS Points) and PS3 (£3.19).

"The fans who waited in the snow, rain and cold for the midnight launch of BioShock 2 have spoken and their message is that Rapture still has many fascinating stories to tell," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "Downloadable content is a key part of our efforts to continue to entice the fans that have made 2K a household name - we intend to deliver single and multiplayer content that respects and expands upon one of the greatest fictional worlds ever created."

Sinclair Solutions Test Pack contains a number of customisation features that will allow players to further their character's development in BioShock 2's multiplayer modes. The pack includes:

- Rank Increase to level 50 with Rank Rewards
- New playable characters Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca
- 20 new trials*
- A third weapon upgrade for each weapon
- Five additional masks*

2K also announced that in the coming months it will publish downloadable extensions of the single-player experience, providing new insight into the world of Rapture. These packages will include more narrative, new tools and new challenges that extend the lore and fiction of the failed under sea utopia.
