New guns on the horizon for Far Cry 2

Not satisfied by the amount of firepower in Far Cry 2? Well you guns nuts can rest easy. Ubisoft announced today they it will be releasing a batch of downloadable content for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 gamers. Dubbed “The Fortune’s Pack,” this DLC will add three new weapons, two new vehicles, and four multiplayer maps. From the screen shots that Ubisoft has released, I can tell you that one of those weapons is a crossbow.

In the announcement, Ubisoft made no mention of price or release date. With all this new content, I would expect it to cost around $10, but that is just my speculation.

For the full press release, hit the jump.

  1. [...] Last Friday I wrote up a post summarizing Ubisofts announcement of Far Cry 2 DLC. In that post I made a prediction as to how much the DLC would cost. Lo and behold I was right. “The Fortune’s Pack” will cost you 800 Microsoft Points ($10), and is expected to arrive sometime in early December.
