MAG will receive its first piece of downloadable content next week, for free. Zipper’s Jeremy Dunham gave word on the PlayStation Blog that the “Trooper Gear Pack” is due out next Thursday, March 25. The pack will add a flashbang grenade, new light machine guns, and additional uniforms for each faction of PMC (above). To celebrate the occasion, Zipper is kicking it off with a Double XP Weekend. It will start at 12 a.m. PST on March 25 and last through midnight on Sunday.
Dunham promises this is just the beginning, and more DLC is in the works. It does raise an interesting question about MAG, though. This first pack is explicitly called free, so we can probably expect that most other packs won’t be. Since MAG is an MMO-styled shooter, we have to wonder what will happen once the player base is split by downloadable packs. Zipper may be planning mandatory updates to the game so that everyone can still play together, but we’ll have to wait to see.

Capcom’s small tribute to classic arcade brawlers is due out in the midst of tax time. The company announced today that Double Impact will be coming out on April 14 on Xbox Live, and April 15 on PlayStation Network. It will cost 800 Microsoft Points, or $9.99 on its respective systems.
Double Impact combines the arcade version of Final Fight with the classic Magic Sword. Combining the two makes it about five bucks per game, which isn’t a bad deal if you’re a fan of classic arcade brawlers. Check out the video above to see it in action.
