listen up, soldiers -- we've got new intel from the ps blog on the enemy and it appears your unique set of socom: confrontation skills are needed in the snow-covered lands of eastern europe. if you've got the mettle, we'll be taking the fight to the enemy in five new warzones: uprising; entrapment; blizzard; night stalker; and vigilance -- two of which are brand new zones of conflict while the remaining three war zones are from previous socom campaigns. we'll also be needing those of you brave enough to enlist to hit the books and gain intel on arms run, an all-new multiplayer mode where players must destroy or activate a series of dynamically placed missile silos.

considering we're tossing you out into these icy, blinding conditions, we're also providing you with more than the fancy white goose-down gear you see above (we pay extra for goose feather because we care): soldiers who enlist in the new cold front dlc pack will also gain access to a new thermal scope attachment, allowing you to spot the enemy much more effectively. you'll be dealing with the russian spetsnaz in these new areas, soldier -- so we're also going to give you some new weapons, ordinance and the option to choose primary and secondary specializations with unlockable equipment unique to the specific skill set you choose.

finally, the bad news: due to the current economic conditions affecting the country, you'll need to help us recoup some of the cost of keeping the war machine oiled up trying to make a better tomorrow. as such, all soldiers who sign up for cold front will be required to pay an initial fee of $14.99. the information on when operation: cold front dlc will deploy is currently on a need-to-know basis and we'll be sure to let you know when you need to know.cold front dlc sweeps across socom: confrontation originally appeared on joystiq on sat, 17 oct 2009 06:00:00 est. please see our terms for use of feeds.
