Max Payne's third outing will see Max get mired in trouble in sunnier climes than his we've come to expect with him taking a job protecting a wealthy businessman named Rodrigo Branco and his in Sao Paolo. Branco's wife is kidnapped and Max is drawn into the kind of dark conspiracy that he thought he'd left behind in NYC.

Rockstar founder Sam Houser evangelised: "Max Payne 3 brings powerful storytelling back to the action-shooter genre. Studios are delivering a game thats both incredibly cinematic and very, very intense to play."

The delay will see the new slicker and smoother gunplay of Max Payne 3 pushed back to May the 15th in the and May the 18th in on and 360. The version follows on May 29th in the US and finally hitting European shores on June the 1st.
