Many of us have been waiting for the Max Payne 3 game for a long time, and now we finally have a date. It was originally supposed to arrive back in 2009 (two full years ago) but the game faced several delays and missed a few launch dates in both 2010 and 2011. And now Rockstar Games has announced that Max Payne 3 will finally arrive in March of 2012.

So what can we expect? Well, this game will be the first in the series to have multiplayer, for one thing. There’s also a new reward and leveling up system as well as character load-out options. These options may be worth the wait alone.

You can expect it to be much grittier too. The game takes place 8 years after Max Payne 2, and is based in Brazil. It tells the story of his downward spiral. This is not like other Max Payne games, Max is addicted and broken, hence the story is dark and twisted. I think it’s safe to say that we can expect lots of violence. I can’t wait to play this one.
