GTA IV DLC Dated

According to a USA Today report, that exclusive Grand Theft Auto IV DLC you’ve been aching for will be hitting Xbox Live Marketplace on Feb. 17, 2009. The DLC will be called “The Lost and the Damned” and will not feature protagonist Niko Belic. Niko is taking a holiday, apparently, to make room for a fresh face alluded to on the radio. Instead the DLC will focus on Johnny Klebitz, a member of Liberty City gang The Lost. The DLc promises to show Liberty City from a whole new angle.

“Johnny is a very different character than Niko, with a very different background,” says Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser. “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.”

Sounds absolutely fabulous. Niko Belic will be making some sort of cameo in the DLC according to the report, for whatever that’s worth.
