“That’s where we really started”: Max Payne Remake Just Got More Exciting With Sam Lake’s Recent Comment After Blowing Up Alan Wake 2 Budget On It
Remedy had a great year last year. Alan Wake 2 was a long wait, and the game didn’t disappoint us. It won several awards in prestigious awards shows such as the BAFTA. The game also sold a million copies by February. With all the success around Alan Wake 2, many are eagerly waiting to know about the next games from Remedy.
Rest assured, Remedy is working on multiple games currently. As we all know, the company is working on Control 2, and Condor. Both of these games have become the talk of the town, thanks to the success of Alan Wake 2.
Sam Lake’s comments on the Max Payne remake
Apart from Control 2, and Condor, there is another game that many are looking forward to. This is none other than the Max Payne remake. The remake is highly anticipated and will be developed by Remedy and funded by Rockstar Games.
We all know that the Max Payne remake is in the production readiness stage, as previously revealed by Remedy’s CEO. Tero Vertala has also set the bar high with the game by saying that the remake would be a major new game. The remake would also have huge potential at launch, as it will have a similar budget to that of Alan Walk 2.
While little news is available about the Max Payne remake, the game just got more exciting after Sam Lake’s recent comment. Sam is the creative director at Remedy and the face behind the Max Payne game.
GamingBible journalists had a brief chat with Sam, where they spoke about the Max Payne remake. When asked if he is excited to go back to creating a Max Payne game, Sam said, “For sure”. Sam further added,
Yes. I mean that’s where we really started our journey at Remedy

The Max Payne remake’s artwork is shown
Even though the Max Payne remake has entered the development phase, the game is still years away. As fans are eagerly waiting for the game, Remedy dropped some exciting updates regarding the remake.
In the month of February, Remedy showed two pieces of art relating to the Max Payne remake. The article works were installed at Remedy Finland HQ, and the company took to its Instagram account to share it with the caption, “New Max Payne decals are now gracing some of our office spaces and meeting rooms at Remedy Finland HQ. What do you think?”
What is interesting in the artwork is that the skyline seems to feature the One World Trade Centre building. We all know that the Max Payne games were set in the 90s. So does this mean that the remake will take place in the modern day? This is something that we all have to wait and watch.
