Far Cry 3 'High Tides' DLC a PS3-exclusive

The first expansion for Far Cry 3 will release exclusively for the PlayStation 3 version of the game in January 2013. Developer Massive Entertainment announced today through the PlayStation Blog that the game's High Tides downloadable content will add two new co-op chapters to the action-shooter.

These are Jailbreak and Redemption and will take place where the original six co-op chapters left off. "These are the gang’s final moments, and we’re really challenging ourselves to go all-out," the developer said.

Up for grabs in the High Tides expansion are new missions, "tougher fights," larger competitions, and "explosive moments unlike anything you've seen before." No price for the content was announced, and a Ubisoft representative was not immediately available to comment. It is also unclear if the content will be later made available for Xbox 360 and PC gamers.
