Expected this fall, the Hostage Negotiation Map Pack DLC for Max Payne 3 will bring four brand new multiplayer maps to the table. Specifically created for online gaming the DLC also comes with a range of new items and weapons plus the Filhos De Ogum avatar faction.
Direct from Rockstar they have released information about each map:
The Club Moderno and Estádio Do Galatians maps are being designed to deliver intense nightclub and stadium shootouts reminiscent of Max’s earlier dust-ups with some of São Paulo’s most dangerous elements like the Comando Sombra and the Crachá Preto.
Meanwhile, the O Palácio Strip Club and Favela Heights maps introduce to multiplayer all new, highly detailed favela territories from Max’s descent into the gang-infested neighborhoods of the city.
The Hostage Negotiation Pack will also include two new weapons: the M24 Sniper Rifle and theIA2 Assault Rifle, the new Explosive Burst for explosive booby traps, the Bomb Suit item to protect against explosive damage and the Intimidation Mask item to cause slower reload times for your enemies.
Rockstar have also released an apology in relation to the delay in the DLC coming to our consoles and advise us that they are working hard to ensure all future DLC is released on time.
The pack will be available later this fall for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE or $9.99 on PlayStation Network. If you own the Rockstar Pass then of course you will receive it, and all other future packs, free of charge).
