There won't be a shortage of fights with serious men in suits who hold significant government positions. Learn the secrets of the city's drug underworld. Face the challenges that lie ahead by immersing yourself in the atmosphere of 1950s classic noir crime.

Plot

Max Payne has experience as an NYPD and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officer. His beloved wife Michelle and daughter Rose were murdered by armed junkies who were addicted to the drug Valkyr. Three years after these tragic events, the main character is already working under the cover of the Punchinello Mafia family, which deals with the distribution of the Valkyr drug.

An important event for the main character was also waiting at the subway station to meet his friend and former colleague. However, he accidentally gets into a shootout with gangsters working for Deputy Punchinello. When Max's friend Alex arrived, he was killed by an unseen assassin who framed Max for the murder.

It turns out that the substance is a component of the clandestine government project Valhalla, whose goal was to investigate how the substance affected soldiers' behavior. What will occur after that? All of it is up to you.

Gameplay

Bullet-time elements are the foundation of the gameplay. Time slows down when a shot is fired until projectiles and other projectiles move at a rate that can be observed with the unaided eye. Max's motion is likewise slowed down, yet you can still plan and shoot at adversaries with ease.

In addition to the default difficulty setting, there are other difficulty levels available for the game. "Hard-Boiled" decreases health and ammo while increasing damage taken. The player is only allowed seven saves in "Dead on Arrival" per chapter. The game "New York Minute" makes the player finish each chapter in the specified amount of time. Additionally, "The Last Challenge" can be unlocked, which places a cap on your supply of medicines, guns, and ammunition.

Key features:

• This third-person shooter game tells the story of a policeman who investigates the murder of his family
• The gameplay was mostly influenced by Asian action flicks, the noir aesthetic, and Norse mythology
• It was among the first video games to feature the bullet-time effect, which gained popularity largely thanks to "The Matrix" film
• If you like playing by yourself, "Max Payne" is perfect; you cannot use the multiplayer mode
