Gamers who pick up Namco Bandai's new fighting game SoulCalibur V when it hits stores this week can already look forward to several batches of downloadable content scheduled for release in February 2012.
The developer has revealed that three DLC packs will arrive for the new Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 title during launch month, the first of which will be available from day one.
Included in the first pack are character customisation items such as bikinis, wings and face paint, as well as extra music tracks taken from the original Soul Blade and SoulCalibur games.
The second DLC batch hits on February 14th and includes breast plates, kimonos and animal heads plus music from the second and third SoulCalibur titles, while the third pack on February 28th features yet more new items and songs from SoulCalibur IV and SoulCalibur: Broken Destiny.
SoulCalibur V is set to pack in more gameplay features, modes and characters than ever before, with a roster including special guest Ezio Auditore de Firenze, star of the Assassin's Creed videogames.
It will be released in a special Collector's Edition that includes an art book and prints, a soundtrack CD, bonus customisation content and more.
