BioShock 2 “Minerva’s Den” DLC announced

2K Games has announced that they are releasing their final installment of DLC for BioShock 2. “Minerva’s Den” will be a single-player downloadable add-on that will introduce new characters and locations, as well as expand on the story of Rapture.

Minerva’s Den is a self-contained narrative experience that puts players in the role of an all-new character who has teamed up with Dr. Tenenbaum to unravel a dictator’s stranglehold on a key district in the distinctive city under the sea.

“Minerva’s Den is a substantial addition that will give players more of what they’re looking for: more story, more narrative, more game play and more of Rapture,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “The core team has created an exciting product that further enhances the mystery and allure of the world of Rapture. Minerva’s Den will be a fitting conclusion to the BioShock 2 saga.”

The DLC will take place in Rapture’s Central Computing, a never-before-seen area of the city. Players will be able to gain access to new high-tech weaponry and a devastating new Plasmid that they will need to put to good use against the threats of Minerva’s Den: elemental power-wielding Splicers, upgraded Security Bots and a never-before-seen type of Big Daddy.

Minerva’s Den will be released on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 later this fall.
