Rockstar details Max Payne 3 DLC plans

As has become typical for Rockstar releases this generation, Max Payne 3 will have a long downloadable content plan designed to keep you from trading the game in at GameStop the second you finish the campaign. Though maybe not as extensive as the DLC campaign for Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3 will be getting new content all the way into the fall of 2012, and you can bet that will be extended if sales are stronger than expected.

Right now we only have details about the first content pack, while the rest are essentially just names until Rockstar shed further light on them. However, according to the press release the Local Justice Pack - which will be available in June - will include: "the Police Precinct map for Gang Wars, Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Payne Killer multiplayer modes. The pack will also feature two additional maps for Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Payne Killer, new precinct-themed multiplayer avatar items, multiplayer challenges, and more."
