Max Payne 3 Will Feature A Little Bit Of NYC

While Max Payne 3 isn’t actually set in New York, there’s news that some areas of the city will be playable. We’re not sure how or why, but it’s there. Perhaps you’ll be playing in the Big Apple during a flashback, or in multiplayer.

Who knows.

According to Rockstar: “Fighting vicious criminals and his own personal demons while in the volatile Brazilian metropolis of São Paulo, Max Payne is reminded of his fair share of trouble found on the streets of New York City,”

And as Rockstar said, the game will take place in São Paulo, Brazil. Where, following that, cutscenes merge with gameplay.

Max Payne 3 will release in May for all major platforms.
