Mirror’s Edge DLC coming January 29

After receiving a vague “January” release period back in November, Mirror’s Edge’s psychedelic DLC pack has been branded with an official date: January 29.

According to EA’s press release, the DLC will “challenge players to achieve the fastest times possible on nine races across seven all-new and totally redesigned Time Trial maps.”

In our expert opinion, the maps also “look totally bitchin’.”

The DLC will snuggle up next to your hard drive for 800 Microsoft Points or $10. Do you plan on checking it out?

Can’t wait for this! One of the best games of 2008!

A lot of people don’t realise what they are missing out on.

yes we do but we’re quite comfortable despising the fact we can’t slam EA constantly any more because they’re actually investing money in games now.

wise bastards

This looks awesome, as jnms said – can’t wait! The fact that it’s pure running without all that silly combat makes it all the more attractive.

As I’ve said elsewhere, they look like first-person Mario Sunshine void levels. Which can only be a Very Good Thing.

I quite liked Mirror’s Edge, but I’ve no interest whatsoever in more ‘time trial’ levels. Especially bizarrely abstract ones.

I’ve just received the full game (gotta love snail-mail, took a month to get it from play.com to Greece through Budapest), so I’ll reserve judgment until after I finish that, but I must admit I love the abstract psychedelic look of this :-D

It’s PS3 as well isn’t it?
Meaning, not exclusive to anything?

Yes, it’s PS3 as well. In fact, the PS3 gets an extra level for free, iirc.

I thought it was something like that*. DLC exclusivity is stupid.

*Too tired to remember things properly ¬¬
