The PS3 version of Mass Effect 2 received a patch today and revealed small details on the last DLC called “Arrival” that Bioware will release before the third game comes out this year.
Upon downloading the latest patch, three new trophies has been added that somehow hints as to what the DLC will be about. Below are the three new trophies that players can expect when the DLC comes out. The following trophy description might contain spoilers.
The Ultimate Sacrifice – Complete the Arrival DLC
Last Stand – Survive all five waves in the battle for Object Rho
Covert Action – Rescue Dr. Amanda Kenson without attracting hostile attention.
Dr. Amanda? Hasn’t she been mentioned before in Mass Effect 2’s Cerberus Network? Well here’s the description that reveals little detail on her:
“Historians and astronomers alike are abuzz tonight over a new paper published by Dr. Amanda Kenson of the University of Arcturus. Her team claims that by testing the dust trapped in the gravity wells around a mass relay, and comparing its composition to that of dust clouds in the same system, scientists can create a timeline of when the relay passed through the dust. Her conclusion? “Only a small fraction of the mass effect relays date back 50,000 years,” she writes, “The majority are far older, indicating they were created by a species predating even the Protheans.” Dr. Aurana T’Meles of the University of Serrice met the information with skepticism: “While Dr. Kenson’s methods appear sound, the asari tried a similar procedure centuries ago and discounted it. What civilization could have spanned the galaxy for not thousands, but millions of years? If this were the case, we should have found mountains of evidence of their passing. Where is this species now?”
So far, there are no official release date yet for the Arrival DLC on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. With the patch now available on the PS3, we should expect it to arrive SOON. Let’s just hope that the Arrival DLC is just as good as The Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC.
