Be sure to check out Jobe's full post for in-depth information on the new level, including the ten different map layouts and new screenshots of it in action. Seeing as Warhawk is only $29.99 on the PSN right now (a price cut which ends on April 15th), this is the perfect opportunity to grab it and get some practice in before Broken Mirror's release.

Operation Broken Mirror priced and dated
Be sure to check out Jobe's full post for in-depth information on the new level, including the ten different map layouts and new screenshots of it in action. Seeing as Warhawk is only $29.99 on the PSN right now (a price cut which ends on April 15th), this is the perfect opportunity to grab it and get some practice in before Broken Mirror's release.

The APC will come in two different forms and will look different depending on if you're playing as a Eucadian or a Chernovan. Six players will be able to fire out of the APC during transport and a "speed boost" feature will allow it to better infiltrate enemy territories. Once there the vehicle acts as a spawn point for the team. As if that wasn't enough, the APC can generate a force field to protect ground troops who are near it.
Operation Broken Mirror will be priced at £3.99 in the UK, with no word yet on a price in Euros or dollars. We've got a ridiculous amount of screenshots of the new level and vehicle in action so, if you're interested, be sure to check out the gallery below.

GDC08: Warhawk DLC will continue "as long as the community exists"
Jobe also stated that new booster packs will be released "as long as the community exists". New game modes and features will continue to be released in free patches (much like the v1.3 patch that should be hitting the PSN before too long). Splitting content between patches and booster packs means "you can always get free stuff and you always have to option to buy certain content", which we consider to be an excellent philosophy. Finally, Jobe denies that Single Player expansions will ever be released for this iteration of the game, but is definitely something they want to look at for future titles. Whether that's the next Warhawk game, or an entirely different franchise, we look forward to seeing it.
Upcoming Warhawk expansion hinted at on PS.Blog
When asked by a commenter about an expansion listing that has appeared on a number of PSN release date lists under the name of "Operation Broken Mirror", Dylan oh-so-subtly remarks on how interesting his own ASCII art looks. Clicking on the ASCII art at the bottom of his post takes you to this image. It's a broken mirror! How clever.
No doubt we'll be hearing more about this before too long, especially with GDC happening next week. If we learn anything new, we'll be sure to let you know.
