Electronic Arts has announced that the Legends and Speedhunters DLC packages - already available on consoles - will be released for the PC version of Shift 2 Unleashed on June 30th.

The publisher says that unlike the console versions the content will be released free of charge and will be available for download at Origin.com.

One hopes that this doesn't mean the content is for Origin users only and that those playing a boxed retail or Steam version can join the fun.

The Legends content is particularly brilliant as it features old versions of tracks such as Monza and Hockenheim along with classic older cars.

Fans of the Battlefield series have taken to the EA forums to voice their concerns over the pre-order options available to the Limited Edition version of Battlefield 3.

Crysis 2 catapults players into Crytek’s stunning recreation of New York City in 2023. With the city on the brink of annihilation from a terrifying alien threat, players will use the powers of the Nanosuit 2 to be fast, be strong and be invisible, in an attempt to save humanity.

I've become somewhat bored of DLC, especially as much of the rubbish peddled at us these days is just game content removed to sell back to us. Thanks an effing bunch publishers.

But sometimes you see some extra content that really seems worth the money and the Legends Pack for Shift 2 is just that.

Not only will we get 14 new cars, but we'll also get six classic tracks. And by classic I mean just that - Monza as it was in 1958 for example.

Check out the full details after the break.
