Mirror's Edge DLC dated, priced

Electronic Arts has announced the release date and price for the Mirror's Edge downloadable content, confirming that the content will be available on the PC platform as well as the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

The downloadable pack was formally announced back before Christmas and will consist solely of new Time Trial and Race maps. There'll be seven of the former, nine of the latter included in the pack.

If you're looking forward to more skyscraper-climbing and cloud-touching brilliance though then you may have to check your expectations at the door; EA has shown that the new levels will be heavily stylised, abstract structures floating in space. The idea is to break away from any limitations that a conventional city layout might impose on ideal level design. You can check out a trailer for the levels at the official Mirror's Edge site.

The pack will be released on all platforms on the 29th of January, costing 800 MS points on Xbox Live, or $10 USD / £6 GBP for the PlayStation 3 and PC platforms.

PlayStation 3 owners also get an extra map as part of a special deal with Sony, though what that map will be isn't exactly clear just yet.

If you've not checked out the game just yet then you can see our Mirror's Edge Xbox 360 and Mirror's Edge PC reviews for more information.
