Mass Effect 3: Citadel DLC will be split into two downloads for Xbox 360 owners

Mass Effect 3's upcoming downloadable content, Citadel, will be available as two separate but equally important downloads for Xbox 360 users, BioWare announced via its blog.

Due to the DLC's size, the dev team was forced to split the download. The first is marked at the previously announced price of $14.99 (1200 Microsoft Points), while the second is free. Those who attempt to download only the free, second pack will receive an error message prompting them to purchase the first. PlayStation 3 and Windows PC users will receive the DLC in a single download.

Citadel is slated for release March 5. The DLC offers a chance for Shepard to reconnect with old squad mates, including romances and Urdnot Wrex. It will not affect the game's ending and is the final DLC pack for Mass Effect 3.
