*[Insert Press Release Opening Noises]*
Oh, well isn't this interesting? New DLC that is all about expanding the best part of the game, THE STORY.
Minerva's Den, that's the name of the pack, will be bring more on the story and narrative from the point of view of a new character that teams up with Brigid Tenenbaum. All in the hopes to bring down a "Dictator's" hold on a part of Rapture. A part of Rapture that has never been explored by players to date. Throw in a few new weapons, new Plasmid, splicers and a new Big Daddy and you have all this new DLC in one nice package.
With all of these new additions and story elements, this seems more of an expansion pack instead of your basic DLC. Now if only 2K would have gone into a bit more detail on things. I'm sure they will in the not too distant future, but this already sounds like an amazing way to end DLC for BioShock 2.
