Trails HD DLC: Big Pack Details

They say that a picture paints a thousand words, but sometimes words are the only way to get any hard facts. Especially when the teaser for the new content for Trials HD, titled “Big Pack” (catchy) teased a little too much.

So, for the information starved, a list of what to expect:

35 brand new Trials HD tracks, with a special focus on medium and hard tracks, the difficulty levels most requested by players – the sweet-spot of track difficulty:
23 racing tracks: 12 medium, 9 hard and 2 extreme – most with new physics objects providing Trials rides never experienced before.
12 skill game tracks
Five new tournaments including all the new tracks -More than 50 new crazy physics objects: Car, rocket turbine, gravity field, wind, motor and many others! These objects will also be available on the level editor for users to utilize in creating their own tracks.
Three new fun Achievements worth 50 Gamerscore

There will also be a free Title Update, that includes:

Ultimate Endurance tournament simplified. This change makes the close to impossible Marathon achievement possible for much wider audience. The tournament now includes beginner/easy/medium tracks.
Improved Down the Stairs skill game. The physics glitch all top players used is fixed and now the user has better control over the tumbling down rider.
Fixed the corrupted leaderboard scores found in some tracks (zero times, impossible scores). All leaderboards have been cleaned off corrupted scores and we have a system in place to keep them clean in the future as well.
Fixed a number of minor bugs reported by players and found by testers. Now the game is even more polished and stable than before.
Due to huge demand, the amount of tracks users can save in their hard disks and memory cards is doubled.

For the Achievement hungry players, the DLC will also feature:

Piggyback (15G): Catch a ride and surf on top of a car in Dangerous Ride. Can you go the distance? Ride on top of a car in Dangerous Ride DLC track.
No Deal (15G):Which box to choose and when to bailout?
-Bail out and land the rider inside a lucky box.
Look ma I can fly! (20G): Bounce 5 trampolines in succession in Skyway to reach new heights.

Finally, for anyone who likes wasting their money, they will also be able to get their freak on with both a Trials HD Xbox premium theme and an Trials HD Xbox avatar item pack.
