Launch Trailer for Max Payne 3

Rockstar have released the launch trailer for Max Payne 3, which is releasing next week. Set a few years on from the events of 2003's Max Payne 2, the game is the first in the series to feature a new developer, with the original team at Remedy having since moved on to other things.

Developed this time around by Rockstar Vancouver, the game is written by Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead writer Dan Houser (who is also vice-President of Rockstar).

If you're keen to dive sideways in slow motion as you pump shotgun rounds into whoever is in front of you, you'll get your chance from Friday next week.
