Bioshock 2 ‘Metro Pack’ Out Today

Back in one of our early Daily Bits we mentioned the Bioshock 2 Multiplayer pack being delayed and that there was no mention of a new release date.  Well today on Xbox Live Marketplace and Playstation Store the Metro Pack will be available for 800 ms points/$10.00 which will add 6 new multiplayer maps.

2K is also releasing additonal DLC if your looking for a little more than just maps. A $2.00 character pack which adds two new characters to play as, and a new game mode titled “KillEmKindly” which is described as “Fight to the death with golf clubs”

Doesnt sound like a whole lot of content for 12 bucks does it? Not sure how 2k will do with this considering….Who is still playing Bioshock 2 multiplayer?
