THQ has announced new DLC for Saints Row: The Third will be released next week on on February 21. Called “Gangstas in Space”, it contains a new mission pertaining to the in-game movie. The only other bit of information gleaned from the official site regarding the content, is that the DLC will contain the character Jenny Jaros starring as Princess Kwilanna and aliens are somehow involved. Expect it to be as zany as previous content drops. Upon release it will run you $6.99, or if you have the season pass already, nada. Europe and the UK should expect it to land on PSN February 22 as part of the usual update process.

THQ has decided to exit kids’ licensed video games completely, focusing instead on its core game franchises and future digital initiatives.

SavyGamer suggests you enter the code ‘pcgamer20′ at checkout. And it does register on Steam, apparently. Get to it if you haven’t already, soldier.

If you fire up Saints Row: The Third on Steam, you’ll be treated to an exclusive free bonus – nine masks depicting your favourite Team Fortress 2 classes. The oversized masks look a little like mascot heads, and will be available upon application of a compatibility patch.

According to Joystiq, the PlayStation 3 version of Saints Row: The Third is identical to the PC and Xbox 360 versions. At E3 2010, Sony had promised an exclusive multiplayer mode using the game’s “signature weapon”.

This is the second high-profile exclusive content deal to seemingly fall through, with Battlefield 3 players winning a week-long DLC exclusivity deal instead of a promised free copy of Battlefield 1943.
