In the studio's recently published financial results, Remedy said its revenue fell to €33.9m, posting an operating loss of €28.6m. This is even with the launch of Alan Wake 2 in October, which is yet to recuperate its development and marketing costs.

Yeah, I'd love more Control, and I can see a multiplayer game in that setting working, but everything about that (live service, based entirely in the Oldest House) sounds dire.

I do wonder if part of that was being on Epic only, at least for PC - I'm sure console sales dwarfed PC sales regardless but I've heard tons of stories from devs saying they made double the profit they did on Epic the instant it released on Steam. I didn't mind buying it on Epic but I sure didn't like the achievement notifications and lack of easily being able to disable permanently, enough that I will likely continue to avoid the EGS when possible.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


It costs me nothing to wait and see if their MP Control game is any good or not, so that's what I'll do.

That's kinda crazy that Remedy are a public company because alot of their games are artsy and experimental. I would have thought shareholders would have already forced them to develop something more commercial.

The control mp game sounds like a waste of money to me but I hope I am wrong. Also they got the Max Payne remakes/remasters that is contracted work which should help them out financially.

Where Alan Wake 2 dlc

(to follow the discussion above, dlc won't help with bringing in more income since a good portion likely was already sold on/around release but they'll certainly get a few dollars out of it once they release it)
