Last Remnant DLC coming in December News

Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese

26 November, 2008

Square Enix will be offering a pile of downloadable extras for Last Remnant in December, and most of them will be free.

The first challenge pack, Purgatory Sins, leads the charge on 1st December. It's free, and contains some tricksy guild tasks to fulfil, requiring "adequate game progression", apparently.

Players will be offered the keys to the Ancient Ruins on the same day, also for free. Silver Xbox Live members will have to wait until 8th December for both of these.

Next, on 15th December, is the March to War Set, which costs a paltry 100 Microsoft Points (GBP 0.85 / EUR 1.20). This adds three new battle formations: Scatterswarm, Goblet and Catapult.

Finally, on 22nd December (29th December for Silver members), there's the second challenge pack, The Price of Lies. Inside are more guild tasks, and these are supposed to be the most difficult yet.

The Last Remnant popped onto shelves last Thursday, but failed to make the sort of impact usually expected from a Square Enix RPG.

Head over to our Last Remnant review to find out more.

Personally I think the most challenging task yet would be convincing yourself it was a worthwhile purchase.

This still looks a promising RPG. I'm picking it up soon.

They can forget me paying for the one at 100MP. now, how about a patch to fix the tech problems ? but seeing as this is square enxi, I doubt it very much. Japanease developers have never bothered patching their games.

That's because they'd have to admit there was a problem with it. That's just not going to happen.

This is still coming to the PS3 right? With all the XBOX 360 exclusives I thought they were just timed.

Installing the game to the HD certainly helps with the framerate issues (but not the texture pop-in) although doesn't get rid of them entirely. I found the game a hell of a lot more playable after doing the install and I'd recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Square games. It's a little slow to get going, but at the point I'm on, probably about 8-10 hours in the story's got me sucked in.
