When Xbox 360 players next load up Metro 2033 – the game’s out in the UK on Friday – they’ll be asked to install a title update, but what does it do? A representative for the game has posted on NeoGAF to explain.
“There’s a couple of reasons for this – primarily (and you are hearing this here first ) it’s to allow the game to accept DLC further down the line – with the game now finished, we have been turning our thoughts to potential DLC,” said the rep. “We’ve got some ideas, but nothing we can talk about right now other than to say it won’t be new SP narrative content, ‘missing levels’ or anything like that – it’s something we’re only just starting production on.
“And no, it’s not multiplayer! That would be very cool, but sadly not possible…”
The title update isn’t only concerned with future content, though, with a new weapon select system made for the Xbox 360 version also included.
“We also took the opportunity to add a new Weapon Select system tailored to the 360 pad,” explained the rep. “The existing weapon select system was based around the typical PC gaming set-up, and whilst it works ‘ok’ we got some feedback at recent community events just prior to launch that a more console-friendly system would be appreciated. We think the new change nails it.”
You’ll be able to access the new control scheme by heading into options/controls and then changing inventory from Linear to Circular.
Look out for our review tomorrow.
