Alan Wake 2 Tops 2 million Sales and Finally Starts Turning a Profit

Alan Wake 2 surpasses 2 million global sales, exceeding initial projections.

Remedy Entertainment's horror sequel, initially reporting 1.3 million units sold between October 2023 and March 2024, has now reached a significant milestone. This success, bolstered by the launch of the Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, has enabled the game to begin generating royalties after covering development and marketing expenses, according to Remedy's latest financial report.

The studio also provided updates on upcoming projects: Control 2, a collaboration with Annapurna Interactive, is nearing completion of its pre-production phase and will commence full production in late February 2025. Simultaneously, the Max Payne 1 & 2 Remake continues to progress steadily in full production.

Remedy's multiplayer Control spin-off, FBC: Firebreak, remains in full production following a successful closed technical test in December. This test focused on evaluating matchmaking and backend services. While a release date is yet to be announced, Remedy will self-publish FBC: Firebreak later in 2025.

CEO Tero Virtala expressed confidence in the company's strategic direction and projected targets.

IGN's review of Alan Wake 2 awarded the game a 9/10, praising it as a superb survival horror sequel that significantly surpasses its predecessor.
