Mass Effect DLC Leaks onto Swiss and Swedish Marketplace
Written Monday, August 24, 2009 By Dan Webb
View author's profile

Last week we reported that the Mass Effect page of Xbox.com was updated with three new achievements, taking the game's total points up to 1200. Well, it appears that the DLC that is tied to these achievements has been leaked on to the Xbox Live Marketplace in Switzerland and Sweden.

The content comes in at 400 points and is called "Pinnacle Station" which falls in line with what the achievements stated last week. The content is said to feature a fight club aboard a casino and gaming space station.

BioWare's Jesse Houston told us at GamesCom last week that the content was complete, but was unsure when it would drop, but with the events over the last few days, you'd have to think it was pretty near.

The content remains up in Sweden and Switzerland, so if you're interested, snap this content up before it likely gets removed.

The first rule about Pinnacle Station is you do not talk about Pinnacle Station.

The second rule about Pinnacle Station is you DO NOT talk about Pinnacle Station.

It does seem odd that the DLC is being released this late and with ME 2 coming next year but should tide us over at least.

Do you have to have a Sweedish Xbox account or something to be able to get it?

It seems that the leaked content has been removed from the Swedish Market Place. At least I can't find it under mass effects downloads. Thanks for the heads up though.

It needs to Leak onto the US Marketplace. 400 MP is a great deal for the DLC. I hope it stays that price for the US. Either way it is a buy for me.

This is not correct. DLC is NOT available yet, this is a mistake on the website.

When we have more information about the next DLC, we will let you know. Hopefully, this will be later today once NA BioWare returns to work.[/quote]

Considering how big the content has been made out to be, I am surprised and pleased that it is only 400 points. I was prepared for 800... Should be fun. Looking forward to it.

Hmm, never been tempted to visit another country's Marketplace before... Anyone know if 360 DLC is region locked like the PS3? :p

Ah well, I don't read/speak German anyway. I can wait for the US release. I just hope it's still 400 points.

I found it interesting that when looking at the US Marketplace at M.E. all the old themes have been reduced in price to 50 ms points. Hopefully this is a new trend where old content is quietly reduced!

I agree that 400 is a steal, and though I would prob pay more, I'll be very disappointed if they hike the price up. Loved M.E. and need to get back in there and wrap up those last few achvs.

#55, they reduced all old 360 themes that worked with the blades to 50 MSP because its not premium. And you can't even see the whole screen either thanks to the new look.

They are probably releasing it now to get people back into Mass Effect as preparation for the second one. Now, even though the content isn't all that large, it seems like almost every single DLC is 800 points no matter what it is .. so for 400 points it's actually something I'm going to get
