Springboarding off of metafictional horrorAlan Wake 2, developer Remedy Entertainment has announced that its other bizarro shooters have “increased development pace.”
Alan Wake 2 still hasn’t recouped its development costs, but the studio notes that the game, in two months, sold more than double what Control managed to sell in four months. Keeping in mind that Control went on to shift over 4 million units, the company has high hopes for Alan Wake 2’s “long tail sales,” especially after its incrediblystrong reviews.
Remedy Entertainment also mentions that they have high hopes for Alan Wake 2’s continued success due to some free updates andupcoming expansionsthat tie into the Remedy Connected Universe, which officially includes Control and unofficially includes the rest of their games (probably due to legal reasons.)
