"Alan Wake 2 Surpasses 2M Sales, Turns Profitable"

Alan Wake 2 has surpassed the impressive milestone of 2 million sales worldwide. This marks a significant increase from the 1.3 million copies sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period during which developer Remedy proudly announced it as their fastest-selling game to date.

In their most recent financial report shared with investors, Remedy highlighted that this sales achievement, along with the launch of The Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, has led the game to start generating royalties. This comes after the game has successfully covered its development and marketing expenses.

Looking to the future, Remedy is keeping fans excited with updates on upcoming projects. Control 2, developed in collaboration with Annapurna, is nearing the end of its production readiness phase and is set to enter full production by the end of February 2025. Similarly, the Max Payne 1&2 Remake is progressing well in its full production stage.

Additionally, FBC: Firebreak, Remedy's multiplayer spin-off from the Control universe, is also in full production. Following a "successful" closed technical test in December, which involved external players testing the game's matchmaking and back-end services, FBC: Firebreak is slated for a self-published release by Remedy later in 2025.

Remedy's CEO, Tero Virtala, expressed confidence in the company's position, stating, "We are in a great place to begin our strategy period and have set targets we are confident in reaching."

In IGN's review of Alan Wake 2, the game received a stellar 9/10 score, with the review lauding it as a "superb survival horror sequel that makes the cult classic original seem like little more than a rough first draft by comparison."
