The Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions released May 15. Rockstar has detailed the DLC schedule following the release of Max Payne 3.

Omerta – City of Gangsters for both Xbox 360 and Windows PC will place players in 1920′s Atlantic City, where they’ll spend their time building a criminal empire in an attempt to dominate the city.

With dirty money come dirty jobs – and the game switches to a turn-based tactical RPG during blazing gunfights and elaborately planned and executed heists.
