Introducing a new kind of gameplay to FEAR 2's multiplayer mode, Toy Soldiers features three new maps in FullTilt, Cockroach and Recess. Players will be very small in scale when compared to the other objects in the maps, kind of like toy soldiers. The maps include colorful environments with candy boxes, sandbox toys and pinball machines that look a lot different when you're just a couple of inches high, especially if you're inside of the pinball machine.GameInfoWire.com: Toy Soldier DLC Screenshots (March 13, 2009)

The map pack can be downloaded from FilePlanet and Steam, as well as the Xbox Live Marketplace and the PlayStation Network.

In case you aren't familiar with this storyline in the F.E.A.R. series, it involves a woman named Alma. Alma was a woman with amazing psychic powers. Her powers were so amazing that the government experimented on her, and eventually killed her physical body. Unfortunately, Alma's consciousness remained, and allows her to take revenge on the world that did so many terrible things to her.Official Site: F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin
