Multiplayer-themed Resurgence Pack dropping Tuesday for most players; brings new weapons, characters, and maps to spacefaring RPG.

Mass Effect 3 will get some free downloadable content next week, developer BioWare announced today. Dubbed the Resurgence Pack, the multiplayer DLC brings new weapons, characters, and maps to all versions of the spacefaring role-playing game.

Mass Effect 3 adds new DLC next week.

Due out on April 10 (April 11 for European PlayStation 3 users), the Resurgence Pack brings new characters Asari Justicar Adept, Krogan Battlemaster Vanguard, Geth Infiltrator, Geth Engineer, and Bataria Soldier and Sentinel to Mass Effect 3. On top of the new characters, the DLC adds new maps called Firebase Condor and Firebase Hydra.

Lastly, the Resurgence Pack brings new weapons to Mass Effect 3. The new death machines available next week will be the Striker Assault Rifle, the Kishock Harpoon Gun, and the Geth Plasma SMG. For more on all the items within the Resurgence Pack, check out BioWare's FAQ.

The Resurgence Pack won't be the only free DLC headed to Mass Effect 3. Yesterday, BioWare announced that it would address fans' concerns regarding the Mass Effect 3 endgame with new content called Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, which is slated to arrive sometime this summer.
