Ken Levine Addresses Status Of Bioshock Infinite DLC
We've been fielding questions from readers wondering what's going on with the Bioshock Infinite DLC. Fans, especially those that pre-purchased the season pass and are waiting for their investment to pay off.
Today on Twitter, Ken Levine commented on the status of the additional content.
DLC Update: We are working on it- have been since the game shipped. Things are going well, but plz understand: game development takes time.

Complaints about the long gap between retail release and DLC availability are interesting because we've been seeing frustration about exactly the opposite. Gamers have been left feeling abused by content that arrives day and date with the core experience. On-disc material, simultaneously developed with the retail product and unlocked with a code has drawn fire this generation, as consumers claim that publishers are holding back material already in-hand to sell back later.
So, we put it to you? Where is the sweet spot? How far out from a retail release should DLC be made available?
