Hello there everyone. Today THQ and Relic have announced an upcoming DLC pack for the popular game, Space Marine. We have all recently received the highly anticipated Exterminatus mode to the game and Relic is following up quickly with a plethora of content.
The name of this DLC pack is "Chaos Unleashed". As per the name, it features chaos as a focus or theme of this pack with all of it's releases. It will roughly cost 800 Microsoft points (that roughly translates to about £7.99.
The content and new features of this pack are many and varied. There is a new version of Exterminatus mode that will let players use their chaos marines and pit them up against hordes of Orks and add Imperial Guard to the fray along with new boss rounds and arenas. With IG in there will be similar enemies to their Ork counterparts for example they will have sanctioned pykers in place of weird boyz.
There will also be a new capture the flag mode for regular multiplayer and a couple of new maps. The capture the flag mode will be part of a free update as well so players that would only want this mode will be safe. The maps will include three new multiplayer maps Habs Ablaze, Station Tertius and Aquila Canyon which can be played in all multiplayer game modes. The pack will also include ten new achievements and trophies.
There also is certain skin pack DLC's planned in the works. They would be like the pre-order bonuses where it has extra sculpts as opposed to just the colors and patterns. Players will be able to purchase unique Salamanders, Alpha Legion, Legion of the Damned and Blood Angel skin packs for a suggested price of 240 Microsoft Points which is about £2.39 each.
