Killzone 2 : le contenu en vidéo

Histoire de faire baver ses millions de fans, Killzone 2 s'illustre aujourd'hui dans un nouveau trailer centré sur sa prochaine salve de contenu additionnel : Napalm & Cordite. Comme nous vous l'annoncions la semaine passée, il s'agra ici d'accueillir deux nouvelles cartes - Suljeva Cliffside et Arctower Landing - pour le mode multi et autant d'armes inédites. Ces dernières prendront la forme de VC1 Flamethrower et Boltgun 4400, ce qui promet des gunfights un peu plus variés. Si l'on ne connaît toujours pas le prix de ce troisième pack de DLC, Sony Computer Entertainment a tout de même tenu à préciser que c'est à compter du 23 juillet prochain, soit dès jeudi, que l'on pourra le récupérer sur le PlayStation Network.
