The new multiplayer focused DLC for Max Payne 3 launches tomorrow for Xbox 360 and PS3 gamers in the US, with PS3 gamers in Europe getting ‘Local Justice’ on Wednesday.
Rockstar have decided to help you prepare for the arrival of the maps with tips and key points for each of the three maps -‘Imperial Palace’, ’55th Battalion HQ’ and ‘Departure Lounge’.
IMPERIAL PALACE (PAYNE KILLER + DEATHMATCH + TEAM DEATHMATCH)São Paulo’s Imperial Palace is perfect for those that thrive on intense close-quarters combat. Packed with areas that allow you to creep up on unsuspecting enemies, as well as balconies and bars to catch the sluggish passerby, the Imperial Palace is designed for non-stop action, so equip a Loadout that can handle everything that this fast paced multi-level environment holds.55TH BATTALION HQ (GANG WARS + PAYNE KILLER + DEATHMATCH + TEAM DEATHMATCH)An expansive bi-level multiplayer map packed with tight corners, bulletproof glass and a balance of open spaces and scattered hiding places, the den of the ruthless São Paulo Special Forces has a seemingly endless number of jail cells, control rooms, and choke points for you to shoot your way out of. Dual wield some powerful pistols or equip a speedy shotgun to get the most out of your Loadout as you showcase your hit and run tactics.
DEPARTURE LOUNGE (PAYNE KILLER + DEATHMATCH + TEAM DEATHMATCH)Stave off enemies gunning for you through the sunglass kiosks, book stores, and vending machines that litter the Departure Lounge of São Paulo’s Piratininga Airport. Packed with plenty of strategically obstructed views, alcoves, and enough cover to hide you from certain death, this map has been tailored for intense Multiplayer action.
NEW WEAPON: THE M4 ASSAULT RIFLE (WITH ATTACHMENTS)Used by military combat units around the world, the M4 Assault Rifle (as seen in the above 360-degree render view) is designed for lightweight mobility, speed of target acquisition, and delivering heavy and reliable firepower. More accurate than Shotguns, SMGs, and many other weapons in the Assault Rifle class, the M4 has the capacity to shoot for distance and is versatile enough to handle close-quarters combat effectively.NEW FACTION: SÃO PAULO POLICE (SPP)The Local Justice Pack adds a seventh faction to Max Payne 3’s multiplayer killing fields, the São Paulo Police. The SPP comes with their own unique head and body armor Loadout options along with several male and female customization options.NEW LOADOUT ITEM: LIGHT FINGERSThe Light Fingers Item cuts down how long it takes to loot corpses in Multiplayer, speeding up how fast you can pour salt in those wounds.
