Mirror's Edge DLC - 7 new maps + PC release date

[Reginald]

Mirror's Edge DLC out in January provides 9 new time trials across 7 maps. It's gonna cost 800 points (!!) or $10 for the 360 and PS3, respectively. It will also be released for PC but no price is specified.

DICE also confirmed today that the PC version of the game will ship to retailers in North America on January 13th and worldwide on January 16th, 2009.

The PS3 version gets 1 extra map to fulfil the exclusive DLC quota that was promised (can't help but wonder whether this compensates for missing out on 2 huge GTA DLCs?)

“The freedom of movement and control in first person has been the most popular aspect of Mirror’s Edge so we decided to distil these down to their purest form for this map pack,” says Owen O’Brien, Senior Producer, DICE. “We deliberately chose a more abstract aesthetic that is still within our distinctive art style and then focused on flow and gameplay to create an experience and challenge very different from the main game.”

Game could do with more content, but probably not for 800 points. It'd definitely be worth buying for half that though...

I wish the PC's release date would be revealed already.

Wow, hope that the DLC is included in the PC version free of charge.
