Remedy Entertainment promises better future with frequent sequels for Alan Wake and Control
Remedy Entertainment has revealed its plans for the future of its franchises Alan Wake and Control. As part of the company’s full-year financial results, CEO Tero Virtala revealed the studio’s vision for these series, promising a “more regular cadence of sequels” to advance both franchises to new heights.
“With Alan Wake and Control we now have two established franchises, and our ambition is to grow them into franchises that have high brand recognition, steadily growing user base, more regular cadence of sequels and an ability to generate revenues and profits at a high level”.
“Max Payne 1 & 2 Remake also continued in the production readiness stage,” he said. “The team made considerable progress throughout the year. Max Payne 1 & 2 remake is going to be a major new game with great potential, enabled by a similar development budget as Alan Wake 2.”
