Yes.... I'd be more looking forward to the story-driven single player campaign with new powers and weapons, but hey, it's
good too know it's coming

I may get the first dlc just to play around with, but I'm more interested in the 2nd and 3rd story driven dlcs

I am a little sceptical about the whole Daud-thing. Playing him seems to give off a "wrong vibe" in my ears,
because of his role in Dishonored all in all.
I have my faith in Arkane still, and I hope they'll prove me somewhat wrong though!

Great great new! Thanks Arkane! It would still be great if we could create our own Challenges and share with the steam workshop or something like that. Just imagine! the game would have endless replayability! just giving suggestions here. I also really like the Idea of controlling Daud, great initiative.

Oh, it's on!

Pffttt, I'll take BOTH of you on!

Sounds cool, I'm more interested in additional story-driven content than challenges and arenas, but it's good to know Arkane and Bethesda have solid plans on additional content releases.

OMG YES! Can't wait for this one!

I like the sound of them all.
Looks like we are going to get some high quality content in the near future and that is awesome!

spoilers related to Daud, not really any major spoilers, most of it is stuff you might not even notice after having played through, but this is the spoiler free section so spoiler tags.

10 maps with a different challenge on each?

More achievements?

Sign me up.

It's going to svck waiting until Spring for the second DLC.

Great news.
Daud was my favorite characters.

I'm not so sure we'll be playing Daud as much as we'll become more involved in his story through our own play.

What's wrong with more content? I'm pretty sure a lot of people wanted more content when they played those games and others. I know I did, and back then only to get more was with sequels (or modders). Now we can get official expansions and DLC. And why wouldn't we have to pay for it? They are doing their job and making a game, adding more content still requires them to work, if you can't (or don't want to) pay an extra $5 then don't noone is forcing you to pay for anything.

Also this isn't an assumption this thread is announcing that there will be DLC.

Reading comprehension FTW.

While I am excited about this DLC all I could think when I read this was yeah yeah now announce the next Skyrim Expansion.

Regarding DLC arguments, it helps to remember that DLC is just a neutral medium. It's not inherently good or bad, right or wrong; it's a matter of how a given developer or publisher handles their DLC, not whether or not they release any. Yes, back in the day when we ran games from five-and-a-quarter-inch floppy disks, we didn't have DLC because we had no Internet or other framework for delivering content remotely. That didn't make that model inherently better, just older. With the advent of (gasp!) hard drives and the move to high-tech three-and-a-half-inch diskettes (and then CD-ROMs, then DVD-ROMs), we had additional paid content add-ons, but they were called "expansions." Same principle at work. Expansions weren't inherently good or bad, but some expansions added tons of fantastic content, polished the base game, and came with a great pricetag. Other expansions didn't do much and cost more, so those were bad expansions. The same holds true for DLC today.

I really hope the arena is not just barren land. I hope for more of a crowded like warehouse with the waves of enemies. So there will hopefully be things to climb, slide under, run around, break, throw, etc. Not just brutal melee combat in a field.

The Daud one looks good.

You know what's even better? The DLC is coming out on ALL platforms simultaneously! Great news for us PS3 users

We think the wait will be worth it.

I have a question regarding the DLC and the different European versions of Dishonored:

Since I bought the UK version to get English language but actually have a German PSN account, will I be able to get the German DLC and use it with my UK version?
And if so, will I be able to play the DLC in English then?


I am asking because that was possible with certain games in the past (for example Deus Ex: Human Revolution), and because I was already able to redeem the UK pre-order code for Dishonored with the German PSN-Store. It is, however, sadly the exception rather than the rule, since most games that had different European versions in the past also had different versions of their DLC that were not compatible with other versions of the main game. I would highly appreciate it if someone would clarify the situation, because I would rather not want to buy DLC that might turn out incompatible with my version :-[

The challenge maps will be tiny, but we get ten so...

I'm glad they are keeping the DLC in Dunwall and Daud makes the most sense but....

I hope they just don't give us the same maps just from Daud's perspective but show us new and interesting locales with the same open endedness as the early to mid missions of the campaign.

Hi everyone, Loving this game madly. Been playing for 25 hours, on first playthrough, and i'm still not done (just finished a masquerade ball).
So much to discover and look at, so calling it short is truly in the eye of the beholder.
Really hope the DLC will add more of this sneaky, dark power goodness!

As long as the story-driven DLC will have more narrative and depth, I'll be very patient (or is that impatient? ). Either way, I'd like to think that Arkane read our feedback, both good and less so, and will produce some strong add-ons. Besides, Daud makes for a much more fleshed-out protagonist anyway!
