Dante's Inferno DLC To Introduce Online Co-Op, User-Created Trials

I have a feeling I know exactly where EA would like to send whoever leaked an on-disc trailer outlining the downloadable content planned for Visceral Games’ upcoming Dante’s Inferno.

If the leaked info is to be trusted, the Trials of St. Lucia DLC introduces two rather substantial gameplay features: online co-op in which players will be able to play as either Dante or St. Lucia herself, and player-created multi-wave trial arenas that players will also be able to rank.

The DLC’s price isn’t known at this point, but according to the trailer, St. Lucia is expected to be released on April 29. An EA representative just told me that EA will be releasing some official information on Thursday, so check back then.

In the meantime, hit the break to see the leaked DLC trailer.

    Here I was worried Dante's Inferno would join the forgettable ranks of tedium. However if this is true I think I may just bump this up from RENT to BUY. Please don't be a new trend.. 'Hey, I have this Awesome game mode -- but you need to pay extra!'.

    To be the devil's advocate though.. Imagine another Call of Duty (WWII) shipping single player and HAVING to buy multiplayer! It could be pure brilliance.. or extreme sadism.

    If you want bewbs nobody does that better than Tecmo. Tecmo specializes at digital mammaries and apparently robs us of everything else like Fatal Frame 4. EA is just jumping on the bewbwagon cause they realize that T & A equals money (As proven by the sex industry's Playboy and Hooters)

    Although Dante's Inferno isn't exactly porn but it does show more chesticles than a Chinese pearl shake. Besides, I thought that EA wanted to be true to Dante Aligheiri's book? Now they add a character that was only mentioned of in the book once as a playable character that hacks and slashes demons? --I wonder if the Divine Comedy had add on pages after the book was published. Dante Aligheiri must have made a big profit form the townsfolk of Italy selling add on pages worth a few florins (his version of downloadable content)

    I'm not buying it EA. Sorry. Make Mirror's Edge 2 instead.

    I got my copy yesterday from the glorious torrent scene. That "leaked" trailer is real cuz its in the game under extras. The game plays great, the story is winning me over, and te imaginitive setting immerses you deeply! Almost tempted to buy it when it drops. But then that would just be dumb! PS the demo only shows .001 of the grotesquely amazing boobage on display!

    Oh man, already cant wait for the game but now this is just fantastic! Not only is it new enemies, trials, and characters, but an editor mode AND online co-op? That's one heck of a DLC package!

    wow im impressed with the ambition of this idea. As a hardcore god of war fan, i hope sony does this for gow3. i luved the demo..surpassed my expectations. dante feels visceral and badass. on my hdtv, the game looked amazing. Xbox 360 people, this game will be your god of war. you wont be disappointed. plays simila to god of war and the air combos are amazing. its a bit more challenging than god of war which is good. i will buy at launch for sure. hopefully, we can download additional skins afer i beat the game.

    i think this was "leaked" on purpose. the marketing strategy for this game is through online and word of mouth, and nothing gets the online community more excited than the word "leaked." it makes them momentarily feel like they are part of some elite hacker group that gets all the information before they are suppose to.

    that said, i am excited about this game and this DLC

    Don't get me wrong it all sounds cool and the game looks awesome but games are SUPPOSED to look awesome. I have seen some great looking trailers for very bad games. They never tell you the game has no replay value or it's too short or glitchy or bad controls or any of the things we have all encountered with hyped up games. The game comes out enxt week and really wish you guys could do a review of it asap so I can decide if I want it or not. There are not many games coming out soon I am particularly interested in but this looks like it has great potential. Just don't want to get all excited about this and then find out it's a bad game.

    I hope the overall game is fun because I really didn't think the demo was all that good, I kind of was expecting more out of it being it came from the same people that made Dead Space and Dead Space Extraction.

    maybe santa montica studios can adopt this idea and make God of War 3 dlc just like it, and i won't be mad and neither will any body else

    Yes because all DLC is always on the disc...

    Is it fun to live with such paranoia?

    I bet this DLC is already in the disc...
    you just need to "buy/unlock" the mode.
