Via the announcement on the official site, Remedy Entertainment (Alan Wake, Quantum Break, Control) revealed that the studio will be remaking the iconic Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne games in an agreement with Rockstar Games.
Remedy developed the original Max Payne games that were published by Rockstar, so the relationship between the studios dates back to early 2000’s. The company will develop the games as a single title for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S using Northlight game engine. The development will be financed by Rockstar.
The project is currently in the concept development stage so it will be some time before it sees the light of day. Stay tuned to find out more when the developers and the publisher are ready to share!
“We were thrilled when our long-time friends at Remedy approached us about remaking the original Max Payne games,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games “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.”
“Max Payne has always held a special place in the hearts of everyone at Remedy, and we know the millions of fans worldwide feel the same,” said Remedy CEO, Tero Virtala. “We’re hugely excited to be working with our partners at Rockstar Games once again for the chance to bring the story, action and atmosphere of the original Max Payne games back to players in new ways.”
