Mass Effect 3 Leviathan DLC Trailer

Mass Effect 3′s single player story continues next week as Bioware is releasing the Leviathan DLC. For those of you unfamiliar with the DLC, check out this trailer.

I’d like to see some more single player DLC, even after this one. There have been plenty of multiplayer packs releases, so Bioware let’s get to the core of what Mass Effect was originally about – the single player.

Mass Effect 3 Leviathan will arrive on Xbox Live Marketplace August 28th (Tuesday), 2012 for 800 MSP. Will you be buying?

Players will descend the murky depths in pursuit of enemies armed with a selection of underwater equipment that range from a specialized suit with jet pack and integrated harpoon as well as other high tech equipment. With the majority of the game play taking place below the water’s surface, action-adventure fans will need to master new skills to fight hostile enemies and to infiltrate enemy bases.
