"Claptrap's New Robot Revolution" has already been outed as Gearbox's next DLC release for "Borderlands," but their previous announcement didn't detail the free patch coming out soon that will allow everyone to bump their character up eight levels. Additionally, they've let some details go public about the revolution being featured in the new release.

First off, after downloading the patch, you'll be able to level up to 58, and if you've installed the General Knoxx DLC already, you'll be able to go even further to level 69, according to a report on IGN. All of that should be possible by late September or October.

"Claptrap's New Robot Revolution," meanwhile, has been dated for September 28 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, where it will cost you about $10. That money will get you six new zones worth of adventures, including subterranean areas, new soldiers and enemies, and converted cyborgs.

You'll be able to get into those zones no matter which level you currently happen to be at, but extra bonuses will await those who grind through the content twice. That accomplishment will be worth two skill points and the chance to expand your inventory limits.

It sounds like a healthy buy for $10, but even if you're not interested in DLC, you'll want to keep an eye out for that new patch, which should come out ahead of or just after "Claptrap."
