Soon you'll have more to contend with in XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Showing thick-skulled aliens their place is, as we know, often a difficult task to succeed at with any definitiveness, but it's not like we aren't keen on doing it, so to our good fortune Firaxis will shortly have additional assignments for us.
Two new DLC packs are said to be in the pipe:
The Slingshot Content Pack is the first of the two packs. The Slingshot pack is a set of linked Council missions that take place on three new maps. The player will meet Zhang, an enigmatic Triad operative, divert an alien ship’s course, and do battle with the aliens in the skies over China. In addition to new maps, the DLC will include a new playable character with a unique story and voice and new character customization options. The Slingshot pack release date and pricing will be announced soon.
A second pack will be announced at a later date. Stay tuned for that!
Also reported, and available right now, is the Elite Soldier Pack which can at last be purchased by those who'd like to get their soldiers to look as fashionably attired and well-groomed as ours. Hey, killer looks do count!
