"It's hot and itchy in here"

If you’re finding the sombre tone of Max Payne’s latest adventure a little bit overwhelming, know that Rockstar’s added something a little more playful to the PlayStation Store. Available for free right now is the Gorilla Warfare DLC pack, an addition which allows you to kit yourself out as a primate in multiplayer.

Wearing the ape mask will augment your character with a handful of bonuses, including the ability to earn additional adrenaline from melee kills and score extra booty from looting bodies. Furthermore, each time you do loot you’ll cause the aforementioned corpses to explode. Hey, this is Max Payne, it doesn’t have to be realistic all the time.

The free DLC is supposedly a Trojan horse to get you on the PlayStation Store and paying for the game’s Season Pass. That costs a whopping $30 by the way.
