Very nice, only played Max Payne 3 which was epic so very curious about these 2.Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 05:40 PM
I never got around to play these so this is good news for me, was always keen to try them out.Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 06:47 PM
I got to the red line in the first game and gave up during that. I was enjoying the hell out if it but that part was so frustrating. I'm curious if this is going to be a remake like the Spyro where it's pretty much the same games but prettier.Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 07:12 PM
Will definitely pick this up when it releases. I remember playing the mobile version of 1 on my old iPhone and wishing for a controller. Hopefully it does well to encourage Rockstar to also give 3 the remake treatment. I love the dirty realistic aesthetic in it that most games avoid. Although Condemned Criminal Origins and TLOU2 also nailed it.Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 07:31 PM
They need to do 3. It’s the best out of all three.Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 07:58 PM
Wow! I can't wait to replay these!Wednesday, April 06, 2022 @ 08:54 PM

How about a Max Payne 4. I rather have thatThursday, April 07, 2022 @ 08:25 AM
Excellent news, I've been wanting to replay the second one for such a long time. One of my favorites growing up, I really enjoyed that Instant Action mode or whatever it was where you had to last as long as possible. It was a pain in the ass but really fun.Thursday, April 07, 2022 @ 08:48 AM
Remedy will handle development on the Max Payne 1 and 2 remakes.... just in-case people didn't see that line. so safe to say it's in good hands.Thursday, April 07, 2022 @ 04:02 PM
YES!
of all the bullshit remakes reboots remasters this is definitely one that needs it and by Remedy too!
Hope this will pave the way for 4, I enjoyed 3 but it lost a bit of what made Max Payne great in the first 2 imoSaturday, April 09, 2022 @ 05:47 AM

Developer Remedy Entertainment of Alan Wake and Control fame, has announced that it's working on remakes of Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, in a partnership with Rockstar Games.
“We are pleased to announce that we will remake the iconic Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, in a new development agreement with Rockstar Games,” the Finnish studio tweeted, alongside a link to the full announcement press release.
Remedy will handle development on the Max Payne 1 and 2 remakes using its proprietary Northlight engine, with Rockstar Games financing the project "in line with a typical Remedy AAA-game production." This is not entirely unlike the original deal between Remedy and Rockstar that birthed the two original Max Payne titles in 2001 and 2003. In 2012, meanwhile, Rockstar decided to go it alone for Max Payne 3.
"We were thrilled when our long-time friends at Remedy approached us about remaking the original Max Payne games," Rockstar co-founder Sam Houser commented. "We are massive fans of the work the Remedy team has created over the years and we can't wait to play these new versions."
The remakes of Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne will be coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
