New details regarding The Bureau: XCOM Declassified Hangar 6 R&D DLC

2K Games have finally unveiled some more info regarding the new Hangar 6 R&D DLC, which is scheduled to release on the Xbox 360 exclusively. The DLC will take place before the events of Declassified, and will give a further insight into the 1960s setting.

The description reads:

Hangar 6 R&D is an opportunity for players to immerse themselves in new characters and stories set in the same iconic 1960s period as The Bureau. The development team at 2K Marin wanted to explore what it was like to be part of The Bureau before and during the initial invasion, and so this DLC is set before Agent Carter’s recruitment into the organization.  Because of that, we needed a new protagonist, someone who was around before the invasion that the player could relate to, and our thoughts immediately went to Nico DaSilva. What was he doing during the invasion? Why does he talk about having lost so many friends? We wanted to explore these questions, and we wanted to up-rez his mustache.

Xbox 360 owners won't have to wait long to play this DLC, as it hits Xbox Live on October 8th, and will retail for $4.99.
