Take Two have announced an 'expected' date of March 2012 meaning it could be anytime around there really. Rockstar founder Sam Houser had the following to say...​

The Xbox 360, PS3 and PC game promises to deliver a dark, gritty action experience that is sure to satisfy newcomers and fans to the historic franchise. Max Payne 3 gave us an amazing creative opportunity to evolve one of our most iconic characters. We're excited to show fans a modern version of Max that pulls them back into his dark and twisted story.​

Take Twos official description of the game is as follows:​

Max Payne 3 continues the tale of former New York City detective, Max Payne. Still haunted by the memories of his traumatic past, Max begins a new life working private security protecting a wealthy industrialist and his family in Sao Paulo, Brazil. When gangs target the family under his protection, Max is forced to fight to save his clients and clear his name, in a bid to, once and for all, rid himself of the demons that have tortured him for far too long. ​

Picking up where the release of Max Payne 2 from series creator Remedy Entertainment left off, Max Payne 3 is a true cross-studio collaboration between Rockstar Games' global development teams. The game utilizes cutting edge technology for a seamless, cinematic action experience, incorporating the latest advances in Natural Motion physics and a brand new iteration of Rockstar's own Rockstar Advanced Game Engine. The result offers highly-refined gameplay, with an extensive range of realistic weaponry, an intelligent cover system and sophisticated Bullet-Time mechanics.​

They have also detailed a new multiplayer mode.​

Looks and sounds interesting. I'm aware of the series, but never played a game from it so I sadly don't know what I've been missing all these years.

I didnt own either of them but played the first breifly and it was a pretty solid 3rd person shooter and the bullet time and dark atmosphere added to the game.
