In an interview with VGC, we asked Sam Lake about the remakes, and how Remedy’s initial announcement suggested it was going to be a significant undertaking.
Lake replied that the project is indeed a large one, with a lot of work involved.
“It is a significant undertaking in the sense that even if they are old games, just thinking about bringing them up to modern standards and combining them into one, you can see that it’s a big, big project,” he explained.
Upon being asked if he would be reprising his role as Max from the first game, Lake laughed.
“No comment!” he replied. “That’s going too far.”
Remedy announced back in April 2022 that it was starting work on remakes of the first two Max Payne games.
The games will be sold together as a single package and will be released on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and PC.

Book it
In other words we ain't started s***
Given all the references in AW2 it would be cool to see a restart of the series tied into the Remedy Universe
The game was slandered to hell when it dropped
By who? Literally got 9/10s across the board lol

Rip max payne
what a legend RIP
Rest in peace. Never played Max Payne but I love McCaffrey’s performance in Control and Alan Wake II.
Thank God we're getting remedy Max Payne back. Alan wake 2 actually looks really good. Might try it out one day
We lost an incredible talent.. His performances will always leave an impact upon hearing them.
I first saw him first on Rescue Me but of course my favorite character of his is Max Payne, insanely talented and he’ll be greatly missed. He brought so much realness and grit to every character he portrayed, this’s a massive loss of talent for the industry.
