For those who might not have heard about the ‘Survival DLC Pack,’ it ships with a new mode called Invasion (which asks teams to spread through troops across various sections of the map to earn points), skins for Herbert, Glenda, Jean, and Charlie, and a Resistance 3 Survivor Concept Art Static XMB theme. Unlike the two maps, the ‘Survival’ pack will set gamers back $3.99.

While Insomniac didn’t share any details regarding patch 1.05 and didn’t say when gamers could expect the new maps, just the announcement should get Resistance 3 fans excited. Sure, the game has experienced a few hiccups both in the single player and multiplayer departments, but none of that could take away how fantastic the game as a whole is.

Insomniac has actually been pretty mum about updates to Resistance 3 in general, keeping many of the important details to themselves. Since the last patch we can report that most issues have been non-existent, but a few glitches here and there have been reported.

What is probably most confusing about this announcement is the fact that two maps will be provided for free while a new mode and some skins will run $3.99. Since Sony has already paved the way for the Online Pass with Resistance 3, it’s surprising that both sets of DLC aren’t both free or both a small fee.

Still, for a chance to keep the experience of one of 2011’s highlights going we can’t complain too much.

Have you had a chance to check out the new ‘Survival DLC Pack?’ Are there any issues you are still encountering with Resistance 3 that you would like to see fixed with patch 1.05?

Resistance 3 is available now for the PS3.
