Details have now been shared for “The Insurgent Pack” that will be released for Killzone: Shadow Fall.
This expansion pack includes new features such as a brand new Character Class, 3 new abilities, 3 new weapons and 2 new game modes. All of these will be available for the multiplayer mode of Killzone: Shadow Fall.
Here are the features for the Insurgent Pack explained in more detail via the PlayStation Blog:
The Insurgent – a brand new class with two unique abilities: Hack and Steal
The insurgent starts with just a pistol and his wits about him. As vulnerable as he is, he can slowly build up his arsenal in the game by using [Steal] to steal weapons and abilities from downed enemies, which enables him to use those weapons throughout the game, even if he falls in combat. By Using [Hack] he can change enemy ground automata into friendlies, turning the tide of battle quite swiftly.
