Burnout Paradise Getting Downloadable PS3 Release

Aug 14, 2008 3:16pm CST tags: Burnout Paradise, PlayStation Network, Criterion Games
Criterion Games' open-world racer Burnout Paradise (PS3, 360) will hit the PlayStation 3's online PlayStation Network this coming fall as a downloadable title, publisher Electronic Arts announced today.

Priced at $29.99, Burnout Paradise's downloadable incarnation will include all of the features and content available in its Blu-ray retail release, which hit store shelves in January of this year. The game marks the first PlayStation 3 title to make the leap as a downloadable game following a traditional retail release.

Since its debut, Criterion has provided several content updates for the racer. The latest update, codenamed "Cagney," brought three new online game modes upon its release last month. The forthcoming "Davis" update, which will offer motorcycles, dynamic weather and night and day day cycles, was recently delayed to September.
