Take-Two Interactive has picked up the license to bring the third iteration of Payne to consoles and PC’s at the end of the year.  RockStar Games is working on Max Payne 3

Just received word that Max Payne will take his screwed up expression and bring it to the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC platforms towards the end of 2009.

Says winter in the attached picture, this is a northern hemisphere reference.  Here are the words from RockStar Games:

Rockstar Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), is proud to announce that Max Payne 3 is currently in development and scheduled for a summer 2009 release on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and PC. Developed by Rockstar Vancouver, Max Payne 3 tells the story of a retired police detective embroiled in a world of corruption, turmoil and intense violence.
 
The award-winning Max Payne franchise put players in the role of Max Payne, a hard-boiled New York City detective with a penchant for violence, out to avenge the death of his family. The latest installment delivers more of the classic elements and hyper-intense action that fans have come to love, while moving the story of Max in a new direction.
 
"We’re starting a new chapter of Max's life with this game," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games." This is Max as we’ve never seen him before, a few years older, more world-weary and cynical than ever. We experience the downward spiral of his life after the events of Max Payne 2 and witness his last chance for salvation."
 
Since leaving the NYPD and New York itself behind, Max has drifted from bad to worse. Double-crossed and a long way from home, Max is now trapped in a city full of violence and bloodshed, using his weapons and instincts in a desperate search for the truth and a way out.

 
Max Payne 3 will be available in [southern]summer 2009 for Xbox 360, PLAYSTATION 3 and PC.
