Test Drive Unlimited 2 is great fun - but the game hasn't had an easy launch - with monumental problems related to online functionality.

As an apology the first planned premium DLC for the game will now be offered for free by Atari/Eden Games.

The forthcoming Exploration Pack features new wrecks to discover which will unlock the Lancia Stratos version Rallye and 1969 Dodge Charger.

Meanwhile a PC patch has been released, and a console version will follow soon. Check out the changelog after the jump.
