Warhawk expansion in Dec

By Robert Purchese Published 26 November, 2007

A whole new world.

Sony has unveiled plans to release a downloadable expansion pack for Warhawk in December.

Dubbed Omega Dawn, it brings with it a whole new world explored across five maps, all set at night-time and populated by building complexes and industrial towers. These fresh locations will support all the usual game-types, too, and will be the largest areas you have seen so far.

The other big toy is a KT-424 Combat Dropship; an aircraft capable of transporting seven soldiers as well as a vehicle and the pilot. It also has an enormous cannon on-board for a healthy dose of murder, and will be yours to play around with once you take control of a weapons factory on the map.

According to Sony there will be lots of vertical shoot-outs across multi-tiered buildings only reachable by air, and you will also be able to use the dropship in the original collection of maps.

An exact date and accompanying price are yet to be mentioned, but we'll let you know when they are.

In the meantime, pop over to our Warhawk review to find out why its online multiplayer battles are among the best thing to do on PlayStation 3 this Christmas.
