Maximum Entertainment revealed Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons will receive a free DLC called Sacred Reunion on Apr. 4. - IS
When Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons originally released players were disappointed to see online was not present. It was among a number of unfortunate choices that negatively impacted reception. Surprisingly, Secret Base released a free update that addressed criticism, most notably by adding online, along with new characters, and modes. - IS
Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons has today received a free DLC pack, adding new characters and gameplay modes.
"When Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons arrived in July of last year, we were blown away by its exceptional stage design, fast and simple gameplay, and large array of unlockable characters. The only thing it really lacked was online co-op, but that has now been rectified. Today's "Sacred Reunion" DLC adds online co-op, Survival and Versus modes, and three new unlockable characters. It's a big update, and it's free, baby," says Co-Optimus.
Why do they take so long to add stuff like this?
This kind of drip-fed content is a great way to get me not to buy the game until years later (generally when it's discounted and unlikely to make a positive financial impact on their bottom line). I reward physical releases of complete games.
