Enslaved DLC Will Be A New Experience
"Pigsy"
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is Ninja Theory’s next game, due out in approximately a week’s time. DLC was recently announced for the title which will be available post-launch, and the developer has made it clear that this is not something that could have shipped with the game.
In speaking with Destructoid in a recent interview, “Chief Creative Ninja” Tameem Antoniades spoke a bit about the planned DLC after some coercion from the interviewer:
“The DLC’s a funny one, because we started just before we finished Enslaved, we put a small team on the DLC. From the beginning, the main game was meant to be a start, middle, and end — a complete story — and the DLC was meant to be an extra…If it wasn’t for DLC, those people wouldn’t be working on that content. It’s not something that would have gone on the disc.”
So the DLC is not yet complete, and would not even exist for the game if they had not decided to develop it outside of the main game. Mr. Antoniades also added that the expansion is “pretty meaty” and not just an extra couple of levels or missions. It is “an entirely new experience.” This also marks the first time a Ninja Theory game will receive DLC, so it will be interesting to see how well it does. Enslaved: Odyssey to the West releases on October 5th and 8th, 2010 in North America and the UK respectively.

I want that belt buckle…
BBOTY
I don’t care what anyone else thinks, the demo has me very excited to play the full game.
I really enjoyed the demo so there is a big chance I will get it soon if I find the time to play on my ps3

BBOTY?
“It’s not something that would have gone on the disc.”
yeah Ninja Theory, I believed you guys
the game is a no go for me.The reviews so far say it has a very good story and presentation but lacks gameplay(average and below)i’ll rent this movie.
Also NT are on a roll Unreal Engine 3 on this and DMC we know how that performs on the ps3.
I’m just wondering how this guy is so fat.
@Hater – BBOTY = belt buckle of the year
looking forward to this game btw.
@TheHater
LOL because they have screwed you with dlc in the past right?
@SolidCake_
oh…that is funny actually
@JohnnyTruant5
No, I am just going by the trend of developer/publisher saying that they DLC isn’t part of the final product only to have a 5KB download key. AC2 was guilty of this, all CRAPCOM games are guilty of this, etc
