Anyways, now that the tech has caught up with our dreams of playing a Max Payne game on Playstation 4 in real life, we’re getting ready to make it happen. To say this is an exciting time would be putting it lightly!
The “max payne remake release date” is a game that has been in the works for a while. The game is finally releasing on June 29th, 2018.
Remedy CEO Tero Virtala has described the company’s recent agreement to work with Rockstar on remakes of Max Payne 1 and 2 as a “homecoming.”
During the Q&A segment of Remedy’s latest investor call, Virtala was asked why Remedy took on the work-for-hire job of remaking its early games instead of having a team focus on a new IP, and he pointed out several good reasons for it. Chief among them being “It’s Max Payne, it’s like a homecoming for us”.

Virtala stated that having several autonomous leadership teams working on multiple projects at the same time is beneficial for Remedy’s growth as a company, and because Max Payne’s DNA is at the core of what Remedy does to this day, it’s a beneficial way of experimenting with the evolving toolsets the developer is using in its games. Simply said, it’s beneficial to everyone’s company.
While Virtala feels comfortable taking on such a project from a financial standpoint, he was quick to point out that it has to be the proper match for Remedy. Given Rockstar’s AAA-worthy budget for the Max Payne project, which will integrate both games into a single package, it must have struck a chord with all parties involved.
The Max Payne remakes are still in the early stages of production, so we won’t know for a while how well this pairing works out. After the catastrophic GTA Trilogy remasters last year, Rockstar could use a decent remake showing.
