Overlord II DLC on Xbox 360 today News

Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese

29 July, 2009

Codemasters will release the Battle Rock Nemesis content for Overlord II today on Xbox Live Marketplace.

This costs 400 Microsoft Points (£3.40 / €4.80) and adds a Battle Rock arena where a Satyr, Empire's Champion and Phoenix await the slaughter.

Ending their wait results in more powerful spells and items for the Overlord and his minions, plus 100 extra gamerpoints on Xbox 360.

The Battle Rock Nemesis pack was released last Thursday on PlayStation 3 for £3.19 / €3.99 / $5.00.

They really don't hang around any more do they? The game has barely even been released.

hmm a tenth extra content (based on msp) for a quarter of the price, wouldnt they (and this goes for most DLC) be better increasing the price slightly of the box game and get everyone to pay for it rather than trying to nickle and dime (penny pinch) the tiny proportion who actually buy the DLC.

Lets try some (easy) figures. 100,000 copies sold. 50% of purchasers on live (50,000). 50% of those on live complete the game (25,000) and 50% of those who complete the game go for seconds. (12,500) so £3.40*12,500 = £42,500 (minus at least a further 30% MS cut). Or 50p on retail =£50,000. These figures are pretty much plucked from my arse but the proportions can only be on the optimistic side.

So, stuff cut from the original game and added later for extra moneys?

DLC this early is very suspect.

Got Overlord II fairly cheap a few weeks back (£18) but not had much of a chance to play it yet - got queued this up on Marketplace anyway, hopefully it stays free until hometime :)

@ link'sdad - it is actually priced at less than a tenth of the RRP though, not a quarter. The fact you can get the game for less just goes to show how much the hyperthetical 50p extra added on would be eroded when the sales and price-drops kicked in.

Still it's free at the mo' so hopefully all's well - the DLC for the first game is about the only expansion I've bought and seemed a good deal to me so I can't really berate them for the current price.

Was there a press release when this was made available on PS3?

I must have missed it.

Didn't you see the review, komodo? It was in the 360 section and therefore this must be a 360 game.

Note to editor: There are no added achievements for this DLC. I've just bought it and it still says 1000/1000.

No thanks, although it is priced very reasonably.
