Rocketmen expansion officially announced... again!


Capcom have re-added their news story, along with new images and a new trailer, which you can view above.

In addition, they've also stated which new items and enemies will be available, quoted below:
3 New Weapons

- Blobber: Shoots blobs of goo at enemies, does damage over time in the part of the ground that it covers.
- Beamer: Shoots lighting at enemies, does high intensity damage.
- Bomber: Shoots grenades instead of bullets; grenades explode on impact doing damage.

2 New Secondary Weapons

- Falcon: Robotic falcon that attacks enemies automatically will disappear over time.
- Screw bomb: Rocket that turns into a proximity mine on impact

3 New Levels

- Level 11 - Finding Jane: The player must escape the Saturnian prison mine and reclaim Nick’s ship, the Icarus Jane.
- Level 12 - Clear the Asteroids: The player must clear a path for the ship through Saturn’s rings
- Level 13 - The Plan: The player must make his way through the Saturnian palace and convince Angelica, leader of the Saturnians, to join the Alliance.

New Enemies

- Saturnian Marine
- Saturnian Elite
- Heavy Mining Terra Scientists
- Terra Rocket Marines
- Saturnian Pit Boss
- Saturnian Asteroid Demolition Machine
- Lord Angelica
The article STILL says It came from YOUR Uranus, as well as in the Trailer, which is completely incorrect going by the logo:

I'll call out Team Xbox, IGN and Shacknews too for repeating the same mistake. Tsk tsk!
