When PAIN came out for the PS3 a looong time ago, I was a huge fan. However, it was sorely lacking an online multiplayer component, which hurt the game’s longevity for me. The team at Idol Minds has been working ever since release to enhance the gameplay and add new features, all of which have been pretty cool. But finally, the big deal is coming. Online multiplayer is now available via patch for PAIN .

According to a recent post on the game’s site, Travis Williams, the game’s producer, states that format testing for the patch has been completed and online multiplayer will be coming our way today. To go along with the update, Sony will be releasing a Smash Pack for download which will include Fortress and Darts online modes for a discounted price.

No pricing has been stated yet for the Smash Pack, but I’d imagine it’ll run you a couple bucks. Check it out later today.
