BioShock 2 DLC Plans Are 'Pretty Aggressive'

12
Though the first BioShock didn't get much in the way of downloadable add-ons--PC and Xbox 360 owners got a handful of new abilities, the later PlayStation 3 release netted extra challenge levels--BioShock 2 developer 2K Marin has teased BioShock 2 will "absolutely" have DLC, describing its plans as "pretty aggressive."

"We are working on pretty aggressive plans for DLC and that's actually something that is already under-way," senior systems designer Kent Hudson informed Australian Gamer. "That is something that is mostly being run out of the Marin studio because like I said the Australian studio is already ramping up on the next big thing."

Exactly what that new content entails remains unknown--unlike the single-player original, BioShock 2 sports multiplayer crafted by Digital Extremes, the likes of which often receive new characters and maps post-release--but with the sequel slated to hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 9, it's likely we won't have to wait long.

    Someone mentioned that the Australian branch of 2k are the ones who saved the first Bioshock, yet they got no credit for it. Can anyone dig up some more information? If this is true, they need more credit.
