Max Payne 3 isn’t even out yet, but that hasn’t stopped Rockstar from sharing their upcoming DLC plans for their highly anticipated title. Starting this June, a few weeks after the game releases, Rockstar will unleash the first map pack called the Local Justice Map Pack for the Xbox360, PS3 and PC. This will include "the Police Precinct map for Gang Wars, Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Payne Killer multiplayer modes. It will also feature two additional maps for Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Payne Killer, new precinct-themed multiplayer avatar items, multiplayer challenges, and more."

Who doesn't want more Payne?

After that you’ll have two more map packs bringing a bunch of new content to the table, including a co-operative mode. Here’s the release schedule:

Summer 2012

Disorganized Crime Map Pack
Deathmatch Made In Heaven Mode Pack
Hostage Negotiation Map Pack
New York Minute Co-Op Pack

Fall 2012

Painful Memories Map Pack
Trickle Down Economics Map Pack

You could purchase these map packs individually or you could pre-order Rockstar’s Season Pass that will grant you access to all the game’s DLC at a discounted price. This Season Pass is available on all platforms.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
