Fans have already started asking for specific things for the upcoming Max Payne releases. Max Payne is one of the most popular gaming franchises with its very distinct style, impactful gameplay, and storytelling. The series started in the early 2000s and paved the way for what would become modern third-person shooters by blending high-quality writing with great gameplay. In the mid-2000s, the creator Remedy Entertainment He is no longer involved in the development of the franchise, and Rockstar Games have managed the third entry themselves. although Max Payne 3 Largely a well-received shooter that has become a cult classic in the years since its release, the series has been dormant for a decade.
Now, just a month before the third game’s 10th anniversary, Remedy and Rockstar Games have announced that they will be remaking their first two Max Payne games. Rockstar will fund the project and Remedy will develop it in-house for existing consoles and PCs. With that said, fans are hoping that the new gaming update will still preserve the iconic face of Max Payne. Writer Sam Lake was used as the face of the hard-boiled cop, but he had a very goofy and tacky look that has been incinerated in players’ minds ever since. Max Payne 3 He leaned away from this look and made him look more like actor James McCaffrey, providing a realistic fantasy of the character.
It’s a bit hard to imagine Max Payne keeping the Sam Lake face in 2020 with all the great graphics, but it wouldn’t be surprising if Remedy includes the kind of bonus setting it can toggle. Since these new releases are supposed to be similar to existing AAA releases and also likely be introduced to a new audience, it’s unlikely that Max Payne’s old face will be the default, but it remains to be seen.
