The iconic voice of Max Payne, James McCaffrey, has passed away at the age of 65 because of cancer. For videogames, he was most famous for playing Max Payne across all three games but he was prevalent in a lot of big games. They include Alone in the Dark, Alan Wake, Control, and most recently in Alan Wake 2.

Remedy wrote a tribute to James, saying, “We are deeply saddened to hear about the passing of our beloved friend and collaborator James McCaffrey, the iconic voice of Max Payne and Alex Casey. His remarkable talent not only gave life to our characters but also left an enduring impact on our community. Our hearts go out to his family in this time of loss.”
