Rockstar's crime-solving period piece L.A. Noire is the first game to be named an Official Selection of the Tribeca Film Festival, the publisher said Tuesday.

The annual Manhattan festival, cofounded by Robert DeNiro in 2002, has played host to the premieres of films like Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. 2011's festival, which begins April 20, will feature an exclusive preview of a case from L.A. Noire and a Q&A with the developers.

L.A. Noire, to be released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on May 17, is "an invention of a new realm of storytelling that is part cinema, part gaming, and a whole new realm of narrative expression, interactivity, and immersion," said Tribeca Enterprises chief creative Geoff Gilmore in an emailed statement.
