The latest issue of the Spanish edition of Official Xbox Magazine carries a preview of Rockstar's forthcoming Xbox 360-exclusive DLC pack for Grand Theft Auto IV - The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Courtesy of the GTA forums, who've cleverly managed to translate the feature, it seems we can expect at least two new vehicles - a SWAT tank and a Rolls Royce Phantom. As the titular impresario's bodyguard Luis Lopez, it seems you'll be called upon to do a little chauffeuring, too.

The Lost and Damned wasn't exactly packed with new distractions from the story quests, but it looks like Gay Tony will have a few more asides. As that initial teaser pic hinted, base jumping will feature, and you'll also be able to get your groove on with a club dancing minigame. You'll also get to act as a bouncer, watching out for any trouble inside the club and forcibly ejecting any misbehavers.

And talking of the club, the Bahama Mamas has had something of a makeover, with the steps up to the club's entrance replaced by a fenced-off area in which partygoers queue up to get inside.

With Rockstar having previously confirmed car tuning and customisation will play a key role in proceedings, The Ballad of Gay Tony is looking even more packed than The Lost and Damned. Hopefully we'll get a similarly lengthy campaign to accompany all these extras, but we'll find out more about that closer to the game's late-October release.
