Portal 2 first DLC announced

Brian Ambrozy 29 Apr, 2011 at 2:58pm ET Article published in Gaming

Today Valve announces the first DLC for Portal 2. It remains unnamed, but it will be free for all Xbox 360, PC, Mac, and PS3 users… if PSN is back up by this summer.

Zing!

Anyways, the DLC will offer new test chambers, leaderboards, new co-op and single-player challenge modes, and “more.”

PS: The amazing “Fuck Science” illustration of Chell in the rain is by Emmy Cicierega.

29 Apr 2011 ~ 2:59pm ardichoke DLC already? The game just came out! I love you so much Valve... you know how to twist my knobs just right. (UCWIDT?)
29 Apr 2011 ~ 3:08pm primesuspect Well, the preview at E3 last year showed levels that never made it into the final gameâ€”levels that looked way harder than anything I saw in the game. I'm betting they have tons of levels ready to go for upcoming DLC.
29 Apr 2011 ~ 3:14pm Bandrik I have to say, that this is sweet. Yay, Valve!

Wait, free for the 360 as well? How did they pull that off when Left 4 Dead players always had to pay for those free-for-PC DLC levels?
29 Apr 2011 ~ 3:23pm Chooch I still need to get the game! *sigh*

It probably went something like this.

Show me more co-op, the best part of the game.
29 Apr 2011 ~ 4:38pm oepn Woo! I'm probably most excited for new co-op content, as it was one of the most enjoyable multiplayer experiences in recent memory. My brother and I made it through with hardly any fighting!

Way to kick a network when it's down.
