Dark Void DLC out next week

By Tom Bramwell Published 5 February, 2010

Survivor Missions for a few quid.

Capcom has announced that Dark Void will receive an infusion of Horde-style arena mode downloadable content next week.

The "Survivor Missions" pack will see players facing off against waves of enemies, collecting points to upgrade weapons.

The pack will go for 400 Microsoft Points (£3.40 / €4.80) on Xbox Live from 10th February, and $4.99 on PlayStation Store the next day.

Check out our Dark Void review elsewhere on the site for more.

    At the rate the retail game is dropping in price, the DLC could well be more expensive than the full game by the time it's available.

  • weejok #2 2 years ago

    I may well have bought this but I'm pissed off at this game because the last achievement glitched on me and didn't unlock! lol
    "Grease Monkey" for upgrading all weapons/jetpack didn't work and now I can't get 100%

    I imagine most people will rent this rather than buy, so the DLC won't be especially popular with punters. It's obviously stuff cut from the game so charging for it is disgraceful.

  • schachmatt #4 2 years ago

    Which is a shame, because at least I'm having a blast with it.
    The vertical combat and the air-battles are simple, straigth-forward fun.
    Needs to be played on hard mode to be properly enjoyed, like many games lately.

    This dlc however, like everything that is not essentially an expansion, seems not to be interesting, but at least they provided a full game.

    £15 from play.com last time i looked

  • darkmorgado #6 2 years ago

    The game is already only 15 quid on Play.com

  • Hobo #7 2 years ago

    This is only £15 on play.com apparently!

    Played the demo yesterday, it's just so last gen! Where are the production values of the likes of RE5, Lost Planet, DMC4, Street Fighter 4 etc? This really doesn't look like it would be out of place on the original X-Box, it's that drab in comparison to the likes of the games i've listed.

  • tachometer #8 2 years ago

    According to EDGE it picks up quite a bit after the first 3rd

  • SleazyDragon #9 2 years ago

    It's not a bad game at all. I picked it up last week and im having a blast just flying through the air and sniping while hovering. Sure the production values are a bit down, but look at it this way, all movies from the late 1930s were that bad. wh should be just thankful that it's not in black and white... ... Plus it's the only time you will see Nathan Drake on the xbox :)

  • magicpocket #10 2 years ago

    The comment about DLC obviously being 'cut from the game' is such a dated and uneducated comment! Most DLC these days tend to be planned into projects and not cut from games.

  • muscleblade #11 2 years ago

    @Hobo

    Those games you listed is made by Capcom. Dark Void isnt.

  • menage #12 2 years ago

    He's not lying, you're just paranoid.

  • Hobo #13 2 years ago

    Muscleblade. Not relevant really, it's still a project with Capcom's name attached to it.

    And you'd have expected better from them.

  • BBIAJ #14 2 years ago

    £12.95 now on Zavvi.com..

  • sjmlondon #15 2 years ago

    You could tell, having played the demo with it's awkward controls that the game was a 'lemon'. Many others must have felt the same and it's stayed put on retailers shelves.

    At launch it was going for less than new new releases and the rapid drop in price confirms everyone's suspicions.

    Secondly, to offer and charge for DLC content, that was obviously developed alongside the game so soon after release and should have been included on the disc just smacks of cashing it. If they had included it upfront they might have sold a few more copies of the game.

    There is a nice little glut of quality game releases at the moment to worry about this rubbish and developers/ publishers taking the michael.

    As Gran from Catherine Tate would probably say, "What a load of old Sh*t"!
