Rockstar Games has released information on one of the first 3 DLC packs coming out in Fall 2012
Called the Hostage Negotiation Pack, four new multiplayer maps – all taken from the single player game and fully optimized for online combat, will be available to play online. The four new maps are:
Club Moderno
Estádio Do Galatians
O Palácio Strip Club
Favela Heights
There will also be new items and weapons (including the M24 Sniper Rifle and IA2 Assault Rifle) plus the Filhos De Ogum avatar faction. The new items include the Explosive Burst for devious traps, the Bomb Suit item to defend yourself against explosive damage and the Intimidation Mask which will cause all of your enemies to suffer slower reload times.
Intimidation Mask. Working as intended.
The game will be available later this fall for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE or $9.99 on PlayStation Network and PC and Rockstar Pass owners can download it, and all other future packs, free of charge upon release.
Also, if you guys are a part of the Social Club, you’ll be able to get an all-new chrome weapons bonus free of charge this week.
