A raft of new is on the way for Rockstar's hugely enjoyable Midnight Club: Los Angeles, the edgy publisher revealing that a South Central upgrade map is in bound.

Joyfully, players won't have to pay for this new content, which we hear will add an extra third onto the game world.

The add-on will be out in early 2009 on both the and the PS3.

Alternatively, players can spend money on the full South Central Content Pack, which offers up character competitions, races, cars and - in addition to the extra 'land'.

More on this in due course.
