More good news for “May Payne” fans all over. Per reports, Rockstar has revealed that the company is set to release a brand new DLC pack for the popular “Max Payne 3” called Painful Memories.
The DLC pack will include as many as four maps – Roscoe Street Subway (which fans may recognize from the first game), Marty’s Bar, Shoot Firs,t and Canal De Panama. The DLC pack will also contain two new assault rifles, and a new perk item called the Hangover Burst, which causes respawned people to have blurred vision and heavy movement.
“Inspired by the grisly shootouts from Max’s past, the Painful Memories Pack will bring four new maps and much more to Max Payne 3 Multiplayer this December,” the game’s official page states.
“Revisit the subway bloodbath from the original Max Payne in the Roscoe Street Subway map. Flashback to the dingy Hoboken watering hole at Marty’s Bar, open fire on the posh Branco family yacht in Shoot First and wage Gang Wars at Canal De Panamá. The Painful Memories Pack also includes the IMG 5.56 and UAR-21 assault rifles, new avatars, items and the Hangover Burst, which causes enemies to respawn with blurred vision, reduced stamina and health.”
The DLC pack will be out on the PlayStation 3 via the PlayStation Network, Xbox 360 via Xbox Live and the PC on Dec. 4, and will cost 800 Microsoft Points on the Xbox 360 and $9.99 on the PS3 and PC. However, users having a Rockstar Pass, will get the DLC free of charge.
The new DLC will now arrive after the last DLC, titled Hostage Negotiation, was released on Oct. 30. Hostage Negotiation added four new multiplayer maps – Club Moderno, Estadio Do Galatians, Favelas of O Palacio Strip Club, and Favela Heights – plus two new rifles, a new Explosive Burst booby trap, additional cosmetic options, and a new avatar faction.
“Max Payne 3” was considered as Rockstar's largest and boldest marketing effort thus far. Highlights of the campaign included important TV spots during the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final and other mainstream programming, alongside outdoor campaigns.
