Visceral Studios have said that the Dark Forest prologue for will be available on all formats.

In a twist that marks an interesting shift, the game's executive producer, Jonathan Knight, told VG247 that Dark Forest will only be free with the exclusive Divine Edition of the game.

In addition to the Dark Forest the Divine Edition of Dante's Inferno will include a digital art book from artist Wayne Barlow, the complete soundtrack and a digital version of the Longfellow translation of the original poem on which the game is based.

Anyone who picks up any other edition of the game will have to splash out on the prologue downloadable content separately.
