THQ's planning to release some new maps for The Outfit through Xbox Live Marketplace later in the morning.

That's according to CEO and president Brian Farrell, who told investors that THQ "view downloadable content and microtransactions as a key component of our next-gen development efforts".

"We'll start with downloadable maps for The Outfit later this month and plan to offer downloadable content for Saints Row as well," he said.

Speaking to GameSpot, a THQ spokesperson later confirmed that downloadable maps were likely to come in three-packs and cost 500 Microsoft points or less.
