Sony unveils new DLC for SOCOM News

PlayStation 3 News by Ellie Gibson

19 October, 2009

Sony has revealed a new downloadable content pack is on the way for SOCOM: Confrontation.

As revealed on the PlayStation blog, it's titled Cold Front and is set in a snowy area of Eastern Europe. You get two brand new maps plus three based on classic SOCOM maps, specially built for PS3.

You'll get to battle through blizzards, fighting alongside either a squad of mercenaries or special forces operatives such as the Russian Spetsnaz. Bless you. New game mode Arms Run sees you fighting to activate or destroy a load of missile launchers, according to whose side you're on.

Along with snow gear you'll get a new thermal vision scope attachment for locating enemies by body heat, plus new primary weapons and extra enhancements. There are two new types of grenade launcher ammo - flash and smoke - and new trophies to win.

Sony has yet to announce when Cold Front is out, or how much it will cost.

The US prices have been announced - normal price will be $15 but they're having a launch sale for $10 for the first 24 hours.

Watch this thread fill with "But it's broken1!1!!" comment, despite the vast majority of the launch bugs having been fixed!

is this still laggy online?

i havent played it for a few months and traded it in due to the lag, but its a game that has always caught my eye and with certain fixes could be one of the best shooters around

I thought the expansion was supposed to be free... or so I remember reading from their recent blogs on patch 1.5.

In terms of lag - nearly non-existing - in comparison to the launch.

man, such a rocky launch - fastest trade-in I've ever done, think it was a 2 day turnaround? If its improved like most here are saying I might pick this up again
