Helghast heading to Lost Planet 2

Capcom has revealed that PlayStation 3 owners playing Lost Planet 2 will soon be able to download Helghast skins for the game for free.

The Helghast Assault and Helghast Scout troopers will both be made available at the end of June, according to the official PlayStation Blog. Check out the video below to see them in action.

The Helghast are exclusive to the PS3 version, obviously, as were the Monster Hunter skins.

Xbox 360 owners needn't cry though, because they got their own exclusives in the shapes of Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago, courtesy of the Microsoft-published Gears of War series.

Capcom has been pretty keen with the old downloadable skins and cross-series exchanges - Frank West from Dead Rising is also lurking in Lost Planet 2 somewhere, and Albert Wesker from Resident Evil was a pre-order incentive.

Lost Planet 2 came out for PS3 and Xbox 360 last week. Check out our Lost Planet 2 review for more.
