DICE, an Electronic Arts studio, announced that the critically acclaimed first-person action adventure title, Mirror’s Edge has shipped for the PC to retailers in North America and will ship worldwide on January 16th. Players who purchase the PC version of the game will also receive a free copy of the Mirror’s Edge remix album. The album features the popular title track “Still Alive” performed by Swedish rock/pop star Lisa Miskovsky and remixes by some of today’s hottest artists including Benny Benassi, Paul van Dyk and Armand Van Helden.

DICE also confirmed that downloadable content (DLC) for the PlayStation 3, the Xbox 360 and the PC will be available January 29th. This special DLC pack will challenge players to achieve the fastest times possible on nine races across seven all-new and totally redesigned Time Trial maps.

Mirror’s Edge is a unique first-person action adventure where players are introduced to Faith, a ‘runner’ in a world where communication channels are highly monitored and the movement of information is closely watched. When Faith’s sister gets framed for murder, Faith finds herself on the edge of the city, on the wrong side of the law. The PC version of the game uses the NVIDIA PhysX physics engine to bring the world of Mirror’s Edge to life with real-world visual effects of wind, weapons impact, and free-motion movements.

Gamers can download the free demo available now at the PlayStation Store and Xbox LIVE Marketplace. The demo features a tutorial of the game, a segment of the single-player story mode and sections of the addictive Time Trial mode.

Mirror’s Edge was developed at EA Digital Illusions CE AB (DICE) in Stockholm, Sweden. For more information on Mirror’s Edge, visit www.mirrorsedge.com.
