Monolith has already released two multiplayer add-ons for their first-person shooter sequel F.E.A.R. 2. Now IGN is reporting that Monolith will release a third DLC offering for the game; however this time the expansion, titled F.E.A.R.2: Reborn, will add a new single-player mini-campaign to the game.

In a chat with Monolith's Associate Producer Lucas Myers, it's revealed that Reborn will feature four new single player levels with the player controlling Foxtrot 813, one of the replica soldiers that serves as one of the many opponents in the main single player campaign. The DLC is scheduled to be released this August; it's unknown if the PC version will receive it at this point but PC players did get the previous two multiplayer DLC releases at no cost as part of a patch.

Warner Bros Interactive just announced plans to release a second downloadable map pack for F.E.A.R. 2. However the announcement didn't mention a PC release for the download. We checked with the game's PR rep who told us that the second DLC map pack will indeed be released for the PC but we will have to wait until sometime after the console version's release.

The map pack, titled "Armored Front" will contain two new maps (Conductor and Decoy) both of which will feature the one-man drivable mech armor that was available in the single player version of F.E.A.R. 2. The map pack will also have four new character heads for your multiplayer character model.
