GTA IV DLC coming Feb 17th 2009, debuts new main character
According to USA Today, who’ve had a chat with Dan Houser, vice president of creative development for Rockstar Games, the upcoming 360 exclusive DLC episode for Grand Theft Auto IV will be available for download on February 17th, and will go by the name Lost and Damned. The episode will feature a new main character, Johnny Klebitz, a member of a Liberty City biker gang called The Lost.
“Johnny is a very different character than Niko, with a very different background,” comments Houser to USA Today. “I can’t go into too much detail on the story, because we try not to give away too much plot before the game is released. But I can say that the story will show you a different side of Liberty City.”
“The [new episode] story is not directly impacted by decisions you took in the main game, [but] tons of details and mysteries from the main story get explained, so it will add a lot of color to the main story.”
“We feel like we’ve only scratched the surface in terms of the depth and detail” are Houser’s final words on the subject.

I was really looking forward to this, and hung onto my copy of GTAIV even after I’d 100%’d it for this sole purpose. But Rockstar have made me wait too long and I traded it in to get Gears 2.
Depending on the cost and critical reception of this DLC I may rent GTAIV again in February..
