Free DLC Every Thursday For Splinter Cell: Conviction

In a very generous and unexpected announcement on the in-game dashboard of Splinter Cell: Conviction, Ubisoft announced that every Thursday they will be releasing free weekly DLC.

The planned DLC will include some very nice detailed touches to the game, including, new outfits, skills, weapons and even maps for the game's Deniable Ops multiplayer.

You can bet that these free DLC packages wont last forever but for the time being I say "Bring it on!" The more free DLC the better, as im sure much of the community will agree. I would also guess that at some point Ubisoft will throw in a more conventional paid DLC as well.

This week's free item is the MP7A1 Machine Pistol as seen below. You can grab it from SCC's 'Extra Content' menu right now. UK and Europe will have to wait until Friday when the game launches.
