New Uncharted 2 DLC announced: Maps, Skins and New Co-op Mode

Naughty Dog has announced a new set of downloadable content for Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, featuring multiplayer character skins, two new maps, a new co-operative game mode and a set of adjoining trophies.

Titled the Siege Expansion Pack, the new Uncharted 2 DLC includes the new co-op game type — “Siege”. This pits two or three players against AI as they attempt to hold a particular territory. All players must be in the territory to capture it, with one territory per round.

The two maps are named ‘The Highrise’ and ‘The Museum’ with the first being set on the rooftops of Nepal, and the second within the courtyard’s of Drake and Flynn’s heist.

Six skins will be included in the pack, comprising of Wetsuit Drake, Baseball Shirt Drake, Prakoso, Platzor, Glowzor and Dead Explorer. There will also be eleven extra trophies added to the game, which are:

Bronze

  • You Can’t Break Me – Complete all 3 co-op objective maps on Crushing
  • Under Siege – Finish Wave 10 in 1 Siege game
  • Speedy – Get 10 First! Medals
  • I’ll Cover You – Get 50 Defender Medals
  • Fallen Angel – Get 50 Afterlife Medals
  • Not So Fast – Get 20 “Shut’em Down Medals
  • Jack of All Trades – Get 15 Triple Threat Medals
  • You Run, I’ll Shoot – Get 10 Protectorate Medals
  • Back At Ya – Get 50 Retaliation Medals
  • Kneel Before Z… – Get 5 Put-em Down Medals

Silver

  • Rock a Rhyme – Get 100 Tricky Medals

Now put down God of War III and pop Uncharted 2 in again for some addictive third-person shooter multiplayer.

  1. AWESOME!!!
    oh and 1st

  2. All of these were nice at first,, but now it just seems like an over-load of DLC for this game. In the past 2 months we’ve gotten so many DLC packs with skins/maps, but they really need to give it a break.

  3. Sounds great. So far Uncharted 2 DLC holds the best value IMO. $15 for 3 new maps is laughable.

    Naughty Dog sent those of use who purchased the Eye of Indra motion comic a nice free gift. A repackaged Eye of Indra in one file. All four episodes and two new skins(Pinkerton and Eddie Raja’s sister) for FREE!

    Contrast that with Crapitivison. Heh, those of you who buy that MW2 map pack are suckers.

  4. oh lawdy….U2 is sounding better every day! i cant wait to get my hands on it….

    @taus90: is that still going on now? i may get the eye of indra now that its 50 cents cheaper lol

  5. This new co-op mode looks good. I’m kinda regretting selling my Uncharted 2 now. I wish there was single-player DLC.

    No I’m not getting this, they need to fix the multiplayer, or set back the update back to 1.04 I personally love Uncharted 2 but its becoming more modern warfare 2. I would get the DLC but like I said earlier, the multiplayer is downright BROKEN

    It was broken in 1.05, but it’s great after 1.06

  8. new co-op mode and The Highrise map 😀
    thats how you make a good game better

  9. any news on a train level multiplayer map?

  10. I will see how much it costs, I hope they split the skins and maps because I don’t want to buy the skins. I am fine with my chimera and Nathan Hale skins XD
    But I hope you can just get the maps for 7 bucks or so like last time.

    “It was broken in 1.05, but it’s great after 1.06”

    No 1.04 was easily better then 1.06 sure I guess 1.06 is arguably better then 1.05 but they did some unnecessary changes with 1.06 to the Fal and also the sniper has a bogus 1 shot kill. Health is becoming more and more like Mw2, and the game doesn’t take as much skill as before.

  12. It’s still fun to play though, maybe a little less compelling for the hardcore (Yeah, we are picky with updates and the so called “balance”).

    Anyway, I was hoping for 2 things that didn’t happen:

    1.- The ability to use the skins in other modes (Campaign and coop).
    2.- A coop mode that involves more players (Up to 5, maybe 6).

    Those 2 things would’ve been awesome.

  13. @ Moogle
    Don’t know if the offer is still valid, I got Eye of Indra the day when it was released.

  14. I love all of the things there doing, at least they are dedicated to making their players happy the maps are great and skins are cool but im happy as marco polo and ghengis khan. i really wish the would make a multiplayer map of the train yard and a co-op mode where they send yeties after you would be awesome.

  15. Sounds like some good dlc, just depends on the price whether i will get this or not. not bothered about new skins but new co-ops are very welcome and more trophies never hurt anyone.

    Only thing I really want from Uncharted 2 right now is the ability to go back to 1.04 and to have a split Screen cop-op option, that way if I have a buddy over we get 2 controllers and play XD Or fix the melee, its kinda crap.

  17. i still don’t understand why they didn’t just make a crushing playlist in the first place.

  18. I’ll tell you what they need to do, release DLC that doesn’t add to the multiplayer, but extends the story in some way. How the logistics of this will work, i’m not sure, but i dont want skins or online map packs, I want some more uncharted to keep me going till number 3!!
