Max Payne 3 is currently in development and scheduled to hit the PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 this winter, Rockstar announced this morning.
The sequel, in development by Rockstar Vancouver, will tell the story of a retired police detective âembroiled in a world of corruption, turmoil and intense violence.â
âWeâre starting a new chapter of Maxâs life with this game,â said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. âThis is Max as weâve never seen him before, a few years older, more world-weary and cynical than ever. We experience the downward spiral of his life after the events of Max Payne 2 and witness his last chance for salvation.â
Since leaving the NYPD and New York itself behind, Max has drifted from bad to worse. Double-crossed and a long way from home, Max is now trapped in a city full of violence and bloodshed, using his weapons and instincts in a desperate search for the truth and a way out.
