The PlayStation Network is officially back online, and with that comes the triumphant return of Rockstar Games Social Club Multplayer Events for the PS3 community.

It's time for two consecutive afternoons of multiplayer on PSN with Grand Theft Auto IV: Complete Edition on Wednesday May 25th from 4-7PM Eastern and Red Dead Redemption & Undead Nightmare with TRIPLE XP on Thursday May 26th from 4-7PM Eastern. (Note that Triple XP will also be active for Xbox LIVE during this time.)

The events were originally scheduled for earlier in the month, but moved after the unfortunate PSN downtime. The PSN players fiending for action better be ready. Plenty of time to practice your aiming, shooting, riding and racing in single player... and you're prepped to take everyone else to school in multiplayer, right? Time to dominate the competition!

Get on over to the multiplayer events page during both sessions for a live chat, video stream and your chance to win one of several prizes, detailed below. And if you play on PC, join Rockstar for the next event in the calendar on Friday, June 10th, when they'll be taking each other on in Grand Theft Auto IV and Episodes from Liberty City on Games for Windows Live.

Here's all the details (RDR details click here):

OFFICIAL ROCKSTAR PSN IDs
Participating PlayStation Network Rockstar Games IDs for this day will be:
  • PlayRockstar1
  • PlayRockstar2
  • PlayRockstar3
  • PlayRockstar4

Only add one PSN ID to your friends list to play. If you have a different version than the Complete Edition disc for Grand Theft Auto IV, no worries as you will be compatible with Rockstar.

SWEEPSTAKES
Enter on the multiplayer events page for a chance to win one of 20 prize packs that includes a Grand Theft Auto IV t-shirt, Liberty City license plate, a L.A. Noire t-shirt and assorted stickers.

FINDING ROCKSTAR IN-GAME
Where's Rockstar? Pay attention to the live chat on the Social Club Multiplayer Events page. They'll announce where they're at in there. They'll begin in Grand Theft Auto IV in GTA Race, and later progress to the two episodes. Use the in-game cellphone to select the mode Rockstar is playing during the event.

NEED A PARTNER?
For team-based modes such as Team Deathmatch, gather your friends using Party Mode. You can also hit up the chat during the event or just post your PlayStation Network ID in the Comments section.

ABOUT PARTY MODE
Party Mode is an easy way to get your group together and find matches. Here are the three quick and easy steps to get you up and running:
  1. Save your current game. To get started, fire up the in-game mobile phone by pressing "Up" on the D-pad. Select Multiplayer > Party Mode > Yes.
  2. Next, open up your phone again and select the Friends option to invite at least one person into your Party Mode game.
  3. Once your team is ready to roll, open up the in-game phone again and select Games > GTA Race.
