A whole new 'island' will be added to Burnout Paradise soon, but this new territory to race within won't be free, as originally planned, EA and Criterion admitting they will have to charge a fee for this premium DLC.

Called Big Surf Island, we're promised a radical expansion of what the game has to offer, including a new buggy-class vehicle, called a Dust Storm.

"We never expected to create anything this ambitious for the island, but as it progressed we got more and more excited about what it could become. Big Surf is the culmination of everything we learned creating Paradise City, and we want it to bring you a truly spectacular new experience - the highlight of a year of incredible premium content," explain Criterion on the new content.

"We want Burnout Paradise players to experience the greatest support ever seen in a console game. We're transforming not just Burnout Paradise, but the whole Burnout franchise through DLC, and we appreciate the support we know you guys will give us for our paid content. We think it's worth it."

We're not sure how much Big Surf Island will cost just yet, mind.
