AvP 'Swarm Map Pack' DLC coming next week photo

Rebellion will be releasing four maps previously exclusive to owners of the Aliens vs. Predator special edition as the "Swarm Map Pack" next week. Two regular maps, and two maps for Survival Mode will be included in the pack, set for release on March 18.

So far the DLC has been confirmed for Europe but North American details should be the same. The DLC costs 560 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live, which translates as roughly $7 on the other platforms. It'll be available for all platforms. 

That's great ... but maybe Sega should get back to us about replacing all the broken facehuggers it sold before trying to charge for more DLC. We're still waiting to be told how to get new ones.

I miss when Jim used to call Microsoft Points, "Banana Dollars."

Oh God, the whining on the Steam forums (and every PC gaming forum) if they try to charge $7 for a map pack on PC will be EPIC. EPIC I say.

I do not look forward to dealing with it.

The game itself isn't worth $7.

It's a bit of a pisstake to be pumping something like this out when the game has been out just a couple of weeks. I'll not be buying, thank thee very much.

Eh, they should make the game better before charging more for pointless maps. Multiplayer was a travesty last time I tried playing it.

Meh. I was hoping for new survivor map packs. I already have these..a crazy glued Facehugger.

It took me a dozen emails to finally get confirmation that my replacement should arrive in about 4 weeks. We'll see.

Sweet, I've been waiting anxiously for some new maps for AVP. Now if only they'd actually fix the horrible online problems.
