THQ Inc. today announced the Saints Row® 2 downloadable content pack, Ultor Exposed, is now available for Xbox 360® and PLAYSTATION®3. Ultor Exposed features an all-new mission arc starring adult film star Tera Patrick, as well as new vehicles, multiplayer maps, customization options and a new co-op activity.
