14 DAY TRIAL // Shortly after confirming that Mass Effect 3 will get a special Extended Cut DLC that will clarify the ending of its story, BioWare has now revealed the first add-on for the game's multiplayer mode, in the form of the Resurgence pack, which is filled with new characters, maps, weapons, and consumables.
Mass Effect 3's multiplayer is a thoroughly impressive experience that delivers, provided you have decent squad mates, some great online matches.
Sadly, even if BioWare continued to run special Operations each weekend, things were getting a bit stale.
Thankfully, it seems that the studio noticed this and has just confirmed that next week will see the release of the first DLC for Mass Effect 3's multiplayer, in the form of the Resurgence pack.
Its contents practically confirm what we saw last month, bringing not just new maps and weapons, but also new classes and some fresh consumables that can be equipped in matches.
The most important, as you can imagine, are the new classes, namely the Asari Justicar Adept, Krogan Battlemaster Vanguard, Batarian Soldier and Batarian Sentinel, Geth Infiltrator and Geth Engineer.
New maps, weapons and consumables are also included, so check out the full details about Mass Effect 3's Resurgence multiplayer pack below.
Two New Action-Packed Maps – Take the battle to Firebase Condor, a warzone outpost located on one of Palaven's moons and Firebase Hydra, an old abandoned quarian colony which has since been converted into a critical power facility. Each map represents a crucial asset in the overall fight against the Reapers.
Six Powerful New Unlockable Characters – Assume the role of new characters for each class, including the Asari Justicar Adept, Krogan Battlemaster Vanguard and characters from new playable races with the Batarian Soldier, Batarian Sentinel, Geth Engineer and Geth Infiltrator.
Lethal New Weapons – Obliterate wave after wave of enemies by unlocking the Striker Assault Rifle, Kishock Harpoon Gun and Geth Plasma SMG.
New Consumables – Cash in your credits to purchase reinforcement packs that could include the following new consumables: Strength Enhancer – Applies a melee damage boost for one mission Targeting VI – Applies a headshot damage bonus for one mission Stabilization Module – Stabilizes weapons while firing and moving for one mission Shield Power Cells – Shortens the length of time shields take to begin recharging for one mission What's more, the Mass Effect 3 Resurgence pack will be available next week completely free of charge. The add-on goes live on April 10, for Xbox 360 and PC users from all around the world, as well as for North American PS3 owners, and on April 11 for European PS3 users.
Check out all the new things included in the Resurgence pack through the screenshots and video below.
