If you live in North America and don’t already own the title MAG, you will be happy to know that the full game is now available to download from the PlayStation Store. Priced identically to its boxed “Greatest Hits” counterpart, the downloadable version of MAG (4.7 GB) will run you a mere $29.99.
The MAG 2.0 patch has been available since the end of September, but the DLC portion of the beta has remained unreleased — but not for too much longer. Starting November 2, the three-faction gunplay whirlwind, the “Escalation” Add-on Pack, will be available for download from the PlayStation Store for $9.99 (US)!
A new major patch to MAG is now available to download (just boot up your game to update it). MAG patch v2.0 comes with PlayStation Move support, an increased level cap, the revamped skill tree, the new economy system, and the highly-demanded clan deploy feature to just name a few of the features.
Sony has expanded the “Greatest Hits” library on the PlayStation 3 this week, adding 7 new titles to the list. There are now over 40 Greatest Hits titles available, which can be found at retailers in U.S. and Canada for only $29.99 (MSRP). New additions to the library include MAG, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift and TEKKEN 6.
The next MAG patch will be available in early August, and for free. In just over a week from now, the patch will be released with a number of new features asked for by gamers. Improvements include new “Happy Hour”, where gamers get double XP for the first hour of their session in a 24 hour period.
Since MAG was released back in January, Zipper Interactive have made many improvements to the game. The latest improvement, and something requested by games, was the ability to play on any map in the game. All the maps in the “Sabotage” game mode are now faction neutral, meaning any faction can play on a map, even if its owned by another faction.
It’s been just over four and a half months since MAG released worldwide and 930,000 battles, 1.7 million players, and 1.1 billion kills later, the time to expand is now. Zipper Interactive has announced that the Interdiction expansion pack is coming to the PlayStation Store on 22 June 2010 for €7.99.
Zipper Interactive’s senior community manager Jeremy Dunham has finally revealed that a new patch for MAG will be available this week. As posted on the games official blog, the massive update will be released tomorrow from 1am Pacific/ 4am Eastern/ 8am GMT.The update includes modified weapon performance, new medi-kit functionality and more.
Make sure you mark April 29th on the calendar. The 256-player online game MAG will be getting free DLC on the 29th, known as the “Fast Attack” Gear Pack. The free DLC pack adds three brand new Special Edition Sniper Rifles that include a number of performance adjustments and visual variations to the already-popular long-range weapons.
Over the last few weeks, the MAG team have been prepping some behind-the-scenes updates in an effort to maximize your shooting experience in the 256-player shooter. As a result, MAG will soon be patched to version v1.05. The patch will be available starting Monday, April 19 at 1am Pacific/ 4am Eastern/ 9am GMT. Full details on the changes can be found below.
