As hinted at earlier in the week, Naughty Dog has announced that the first downloadable game content for Uncharted 2 will be available this Friday. The update will include a new multiplayer map called ‘The Fort’ as well as leaderboards and player cards – and it’s for free!

The Fort is a throwback map based on the ‘Fortress’ chapter of Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune. Described as a “long rectangular map with wide open spaces and excellent flank routes,” the map enables enemies to use the basement tunnels to get behind the opposing team. Look out for the shotgun in the center of the map and the RPG in the side room in the crypt. The Fort will be available in all Competitive Playlists as well as the Co-op Arena Playlist.

The update will also add Leaderboards and a player card to the Multiplayer menu. Players will be able to check their standings on the Global stats in Competitive Wins, Co-op, Kills and Money. Meanwhile the new player card will provide players with an “instant snapshot of [their] vitals” as they move between matches, including “level, competitive wins, kills, money, co-op points and [their] current booster loadout.”

Stay tuned because Naughty Dog also hinted that we can expect further Uncharted 2 content: “Oh, and don’t be surprised if that’s not the only delicious thing we’re doing for you this weekend.”
