As is the case with most games released these days, BioShock 2 will extend its life beyond the single-player and boxed multiplayer modes with additional downloadable content (or DLC), which 2K Games announced today would be hitting the game "this March".

Sinclair Solutions Test Pack, the first of several planned downloadable packages, contains a number of customisation features that will allow players to further their character's development in BioShock 2's multiplayer modes and provide a deeper multiplayer experience. The pack includes:
Rank Increase to level 50 with Rank Rewards
New playable characters Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca
20 new trials*
A third weapon upgrade for each weapon
Five additional masks*

*Some items are only available after a player achieves a rank of 41 or higher.

It's good to see a developer/publisher still backing their game so aggressively, and a setting such as Rapture certainly deserves a bigger story to tell. The DLC, which will be available for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, is the first of many planned additions to the game. We've also included three new screens from the pack, and for anyone who missed it, you can check out our BioShock 2 review right here.
