The first round of add-on content for Prototype 2 has released today on Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network. The Colossal Mayhem pack adds a Thermobaric Boom-Stick super power to Heller's arsenal as well as three other new abilities (Warp Vortex, Anti Gravity Field, Air Time) and three character skins. This is the post-release content offered as part of the Blackwatch Collector's Edition, so fans who purchased that can redeem the included code to get the Colossal Mayhem Pack while others can snag it for $4.99 (or 400 MSP).
There's more content on the way as well. Activision has also provided a date for the next content release, the Excessive Force Pack which will be arriving May 29. This DLC will come with a Viral Infector Grenade Launcher super, three more powers (Shockwave, Chaos Creator Mode, Medusa's Wrath) and three more skins.
Couple of things wrong with that statement, Black Nexus. First, there's no content in the DLC pack to extend the length of the game. It's just new powers and skins. Including it wouldn't have changed anything if you thought the game was too short. Second, the game most certainly was not too short. It was around 10 hours long, which is on the high side of average for an action game.

Afew more powers would have made the get all the ability trophies not have been so laughably short.
And it took me ten hours to get every trophy save for beating the game on hard mode and leveling up the last few times. The original prototype was longer than this.
A few more powers might have gotten this game a better metacritic score. I got bored of using the same old stuff I had in the first game. The tendrils got old quickly.
I rented it from LoveFilm and got 1,000/1,000 in a few days. I hope they don't bring out game-extending DLC because I like my little 100% completion icon.

Prototype 2 is almost upon us, and it needed just one more thing to complete the pre-launch hype -- an "emotional" trailer with suitably melancholy music. It's an old trick, but I still find it effective, so this live-action video featuring Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" is okay by me.
The game launches on April 24 for Xbox 360 and PS3, and I'm very much looking forward to it.more

At a press event last week Activision pointed us to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 kiosks, telling us to have at it. They let us go nuts with the full first hour or so of Radical Entertainment's Prototype 2, uninterrupted, for the first time. Nice.
I got a drink, ate some cake pops, and settled in for my first taste of this ragey, f-bomby, power-trippy sandbox follow-up to the 2009 original. more
