Lost Planet

If you’ve been enjoying Lost Planet on the PC, specifically the DX10 version, I have some more good news for you. The official announcement will be coming at a later date, but I want to give you a sneak preview as to what you’ll be getting.

Basically our programmers have been hard at work learning the ins-and-outs of DX10, and have been able to harness some extra performance. So this new patch coming to DX10 users, sometime in the near future, will feature better depth of field effects, improved motion blur, and some new fur shading sweetness.

The 20th is here. Which means that the update for the PC version of Lost Planet, which I first talked about on Monday, is now live.

The update includes 4 new multiplayer maps, new character model skins, and a host of other great new stuff. See my original post for more details.

And because the 4 maps are now available for free to PC users, Xbox 360 map packs 1 and 2, featuring the maps Trial Point, Hive Complex, Radar Field and Island 902, are now available for free on Xbox Live Marketplace. If you haven’t picked them up, now’s your chance to check out these awesome maps.
