Confirming news broken last month in Game Informer magazine, Sony has announced plans for a downloadable expansion to its multiplayer-only shooter Warhawk. The expansion, titled Omega Dawn, will be available in December, adding five new industrial-themed maps -- all set at night for "added impact and tension" -- which Sony claims also offer the largest combat areas seen in the game to date.
Along with the new maps, the expansion will infuse Warhawk with some new vehicular fun. The KT-424 Combat Dropship will hold seven soldiers, a pilot, and a ground vehicle making it possible to effectively drop an entire squad on your enemy. The dropship features the cool sounding MBEC-3 Heavy Support Cannon. The new vehicle will be usable on all of Warhawk's maps, new or existing. Omega Dawn's exact release date and price have not been revealed yet, but as soon as I know, you'll know.
