N+ co-creator Mare Sheppard has announced that their game will be receiving new downloadable level packs over the coming months. IGN have got the scoop:Metanet plans to release three downloadable expansion packs, each containing about 200 levels, in the months ahead. The first pack will likely contain some easier levels and some co-op multiplayer levels and could hit Xbox Live Marketplace as early as three weeks from now. The second and third packs would follow soon after.
Two of the packs are expected to be 200 Microsoft Points each [a point per level] which can include new maps, new Multiplayer maps and classic N levels. One of the packs will end up being free. Purely speculation but if the free one ends being purely Custom made levels from other players that'd be fantastic, and a way to get around Microsoft's stone fist on the subject of user created levels.
Speaking of - the article also mentions that Metanet are hard at work on breaking Microsoft and getting them to allow level sharing like they originally intended. Let's hope they succeed.

Actually, I'm pretty confident that the free level pack will most likely be the levels from the PC-version, that they intend and mention a few times to bring over to XBLA. Would be crazy to take points for that, especially if one of the packs is supposed to be rollin' the freeway :)
Great blog, btw.
