Lost Odyssey DLC Hits On Friday

9:30PM Luke Plunkett | Some Lost Odyssey DLC was released in Japan last month. For 400 MS Points, they got a new dungeon with one new boss and one new item.

It’ll be available this Friday, May 23. Same stuff, same price. More »

One more thing: the Famitsu report’s a little unclear on where you need to be in the game to access this stuff, so keep that in mind if you’re going to try and get around the region locks on XBL and pick this up. 『ロストオデッセイ』ダウンロードコンテンツ第3弾が2008年4月10日から配信[Famitsu] More »
