Downloadable content is good for some and a pain for others but no matter your flavor, Activision isn’t stopping.  It makes sense for this game though especially considering the fact that Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is a load of fun.  It’s weird though because this DLC is only available until the end of the year, December 31, 2009.  I guess you have to get it while it’s around.

Players can now experience Marvel’s epic Civil War storyline with five all-new playable characters in their arsenal: Carnage, Psylocke and Cable make their Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 system debuts in the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance series alongside returning fan-favorites Magneto and Black Panther.

The downloadable content also includes four new challenge missions, including all-new boss encounters, dangerous gauntlets and more, all downloadable from Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points.  Also joining the dream team will be Juggernaut, now available for download from Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 160 Microsoft Points.
