The official trailer for the next Transformers War for Cybertron Downloadable Map and Character pack has gone up on Gametrailers! This pack includes five new maps for multiplayer, as well as two new characters for Escalation mode – Dead End on the Decepticon side, and former Autobot Commander Zeta Prime on the Autobot side! Check out the announcement trailer embedded below:
GMANIFESS
Nice. With some imagination I'm sure we'll see some Nova, Sentinel, Vector Primes, Alpha Trions…etc…
I'd like to see a Dai Atlas or the Last Autobot. Damn shame the color white isn't avaiable for the Autobot chasis.
Beastbot X
I know I'm doing mine up as Xaaron.
GMANIFESS
Too bad he was portrayed as punk in the book & pretty much a impotent pushover in the game.
Maybe he will make some cool repaints in multiplayer…..
Transformed
Thank you
He's the Prime before Optimus Prime. Optimus replaces him as the Autobot's leader.
Ricochet
Who is Zeta Prime??
just wishing the game gets localization for Japan…
Beastbot X
It makes complete sense, man. What do you think takes more work, a base character model or an entire freaking level? If you want to call a DLC pack a ripoff, call the first one that, not this one. Quite frankly I'm surprised the size is only 119 MB larger.
GMANIFESS
PSN usually updates between 6pm -8pm EST.
Rexidus
That's because they were made by an entirely different company. We might as well wish for Master Chief to be in the game.
And the $10 price tag is standard. Halo charges $10 for 3 maps remember. We're getting 5 and two characters. Sounds like a good deal to me.
Transformed
This isn't even up on PSN yet. When do they update again?
I suppose if I knew more about DLC, I'd know what most of those angry with the new content were angry about (I know price is an issue for some), but when I look at a game like Uncharted 2, the first to DLC packs don't look all that bad.
Angelwave
Unfortunately, as far as we know, those characters were never made for the games on the PS3/PC/360 versions.
GMANIFESS
NICE.
Sounds good. One of the reasons I ran thru the campaign again was to re-experience Cybertron.
It seems that the detail & effort that went into making the Cybertron scenery has been underappreciated, lots of cool details easily missed during battle.
I mean how long have we waited for an ancient Cybertron Transformers experience with no humans around or little kids to save or defeat Megatron for you? I know I've been waiting since 1984.

The maps are astounding though – just cruising around Horizon with Sideswipe in a quick private match to get the lay of the land – it's utterly gorgeous. Stand on Conquest Nodes A and C and look out at the horixon – you can see Omega Supreme occasionally firing at unseen enemies in the distance. The bases even have extra little details – the Autobot side has a 3D map of the planet, war-torn and such, where as the Decepticon's version has it full of jagged Dark Energon streteched up from it, with a little miniature War Machine perched on it. Really nice little details – I cant imagine them being taken much notice of in a frantic MP game sadly.

Yeah!!! At least we're getting a new Descepticon Scout… And the levels might be huge or detailed based on the size of the download VS before. The last set of new levels was rather blah.

This is bitter sweet. awesome new dlc but only two new characters . why can't they give us characters from the DS version like Ultra Magnus and Rodimus?

So an 4X this weekend?

Map Pack 2 File Size: 496 MB VS Map Pack 1 File Size: 377 MB
It's a ripoff that they're charging the full amount again. But this is my favorite game and only one I play online… (obviously or I would have stopped playing online after reaching Prime mode) And I'm a sucker for a good TF game…
Interesting that the file size is bigger for fewer characters/chassis.
