Raiden’s sword-wielding, ‘zan-datsu’ performing antics have certainly impressed, carving out a new mythology that runs alongside that of the Metal Gear Solid series. MGR is all about expanding rather than replacing, building on the lore that Hideo Kojima and his team spent years developing. What might surprise you however, is that while the first piece of downloadable content for Rising focused on the exploits of Jetstream Sam, this latest (and presumably last) offering has you seizing control of something altogether different, indeed less than human. His name is LQ-84i… these days better known as Blade Wolf.
It appears that Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance side story DLCs are free for users on US PSN. You can freely grab both Blade Wolf DLC and JetStream Sam DLC for Revengeance.
i think i'll add these dlc to my download list,because i beluve that the NA+ will get MGR soon
The Jetstream Sam play-through added a story to one of the main characters of the story and a different style of play. While that was definitely worth the price, the new Blade Wolf DLC is skeptical.

"Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance was launched back in the middle of February and despite being a spin-off title that focused entirely on Raiden and was played as an action game, it was an amazing title that quickly established itself as a standout action game early this year. While the story revolved around Raiden, one character certainly deserved sometime in the spotlight, even if it was completely robotic. Thankfully Konami has brought fans exactly that, DLC that allows them to play as Blade Wolf, also known as LQ-84i. With players finally having a chance to play as Blade Wolf, is this DLC worth acquiring?"
Maybe it's too much to ask for: But I would have liked a level editor and an event maker for this game (As DLC). That way we can make levels, and present enemy scenarios/challenges and share it with each other online to make the game last longer (like LittlBigPlanet, Sound Shapes, and other games do). It was a short game, after all. Especially from a $60 stand point.
This has got to be the craziest idea for DLC in a long time, playable Blade Wolf!? wtf??
