Capcom is on a roll these days with Lost Planet, with the PC versions tons of free content that Xbox 360 owners have had to pay through their noses for, and then some more. The new update and map pack, currently available through Gabe Newell’s personal mint, or Steam, includes four new multiplayer maps, a chat system and DirectX 10 enhancements and will be downloaded automatically the next time you launch the Steam client. Here’s the official word from Valve on the new content:

The update includes:

• Four new multiplayer maps. Map Pack #2 includes Battleground (an abandoned town scattered with rubble from ruined buildings), Lost Technology (a tribute to 8-bit games), Ruins, (ancient ruins set amidst a lush jungle), and Ice Drop (a glacier with plenty of peaks, nooks, and crannies)
• DirectX 10 enhancements. Specialized DirectX 10 Geometry Shaders improve overall visual quality through better depth of field effects and improved motion blurring and fur shading.
• Chat system. A new chat feature includes four default messages that can be sent to other players from the game lobby or while playing.

Have fun!
