Alan Wake 2 has surpassed an impressive milestone, selling over 2 million copies globally. This marks a significant increase from the 1.3 million units sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period during which developer Remedy proudly declared it to be their fastest-selling game to date.
In their latest financial report to investors, Remedy highlighted this achievement alongside the launch of The Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition. These developments have enabled the game to begin generating royalties, having successfully covered its development and marketing expenses.
Looking forward, Remedy is gearing up for exciting 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. Additionally, the Max Payne 1&2 Remake is making solid strides in its full production stage.
Similarly, FBC: Firebreak, Remedy's multiplayer spin-off from the Control universe, is advancing well in full production. Following a successful closed technical test in December that focused on matchmaking and back-end services, the game is slated for a self-published release later in 2025.
CEO Tero Virtala expressed confidence in the company's future, stating, "We are in a great place to begin our strategy period and have set targets we are confident in reaching."
In our IGN's Alan Wake 2 review, we lauded the sequel with a 9/10 score, describing it as a "superb survival horror sequel that makes the cult classic original seem like little more than a rough first draft by comparison."
