The Last of Us‘ multiplayer is getting some new DLC. The DLC was shown off during a panel featuring live gameplay at this year’s Playstation Experience.
The DLC pack will include new weapons, such as the Frontier Rifle, the Crossbow, Burst Pistol and Tactical Shotgun.
There are also some new perks headed our way. The perks are only activated in certain situations. You can check out a breakdown of the new perks (courtesy of MP1st) below.
Lone Wolf (2 loadout points) – When you move far enough from your teammates, a whole pool of perks activates. You are awarded 50 parts bonus, agility 2, and sharpshooter 2. Level 2 of Lone Wolf (3 points) grants you Sharp Ear 3, 100 parts bonus, and the other perks of level 1.
Jack of All Trades (5 loadout points) – This perk grants players a huge amount of perks for less than what they actually cost.
