Bioshock 2 downloadable content has been announced in the “Sinclair Solutions Test Pack” and it is the first of several planned packages that will be released over the coming months.

This first pack will contain a number of customization features that will allow players to further their character’s development via new trials, weapon upgrades, new playable characters Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca, and a rank increase.

Sinclair Solutions Test Pack will be released for Xbox Live and Games For Windows Live next month for 400 MSP and on the PlayStation Network for $4.00. Future expansions into the world of BioShock 2 are slated to arrive over the coming months and will continue to expand on the stories of the denizens of Rapture.

“The fans who waited in the snow, rain and cold for the midnight launch of BioShock 2 have spoken and their message is that Rapture still has many fascinating stories to tell,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “Downloadable content is a key part of our efforts to continue to entice the fans that have made 2K a household name – we intend to deliver single and multiplayer content that respects and expands upon one of the greatest fictional worlds ever created.”

Key features of the Sinclair Solutions Test Pack include:

* Rank Increase to level 50 with Rank Rewards
* New playable characters Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca
* 20 new trials*
* A third weapon upgrade for each weapon
* Five additional masks
* Note that some items are only available after a player achieves a rank of 41 or higher.

In the coming months, 2K Games will also be publishing downloadable extensions of the single player experience that provide new insight into the world of Rapture. These packages will include more narrative, new tools and new challenges that extend the lore and fiction of the failed Utopia under the sea.
