Capcom has sent word that an expansion to its original top-down shooter Rocketmen: Axis of Evil will hit the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network later this month on May 14 and 15, respectively.

Entitled It Came from Your Uranus, the expansion pack requires that players already own Axis of Evil. Priced at 400 Microsoft Points ($5), newly added content in the pack includes a fresh array of all-new primary and secondary weaponry plus three additional levels, as detailed below.

3 New Weapons

• Blobber: Shoots blobs of goo at enemies, does damage over time in the part of the ground that it covers.
• Beamer: Shoots lighting at enemies, does high intensity damage.
• Bomber: Shoots grenades instead of bullets; grenades explode on impact doing damage.

2 New Secondary Weapons

• Falcon: Robotic falcon that attacks enemies automatically
• Screw bomb: Rocket that turns into a proximity mine on impact

3 New Levels

• Level 11 – Finding Jane: The player must escape the Saturnian prison mine and reclaim Nick’s ship, the Icarus Jane.
