As a dedicated gaming enthusiast, I’d be thrilled if Remedy Entertainment, the brilliant minds behind games like Control and the Max Payne series, decided to release Control 2 and the Max Payne remakes next! The Finnish studio has been consistently making progress on these projects, as outlined in their latest financial report. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for some exciting gaming adventures ahead!
In the context of Control 2, the PS5 follow-up is progressing as planned, with the development team currently concentrating on refining gameplay, crafting immersive environments, and designing engaging missions. The work is ongoing to ensure that the game becomes a robust commercial success. Simultaneously, the remakes of Max Payne 1 and its sequel, titled “The Fall of Max Payne”, are deep into production.
In the second quarter of 2025, the team capitalized on the consistent progress made earlier in the year. Their partnership with Rockstar Games remains strong and fruitful, and the project is nearing its next significant stage.
As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about Remedy’s titles! The original Control has now skyrocketed past the five million mark in sales, and Alan Wake 2 continues to sell consistently, generating impressive royalties. Interestingly, Remedy has taken back the publishing, distribution, and marketing rights for Control from 505 Games, which means from now on, they’ll be fully responsible for driving sales themselves. This shift should lead to even more success for these captivating games!
In 2025, Remedy Entertainment released their first self-published game, a multiplayer spin-off titled FBC: Firebreak. Despite its launch, the sales to consumers were not as successful as they had hoped, with a significant portion of its commercial success attributed to being featured on PlayStation Plus Extra and Xbox Game Pass.
After just 10 days of its release, the game had amassed over a million players, with a majority hailing from PS5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles. Despite anticipating PC to be Firebreak’s primary platform, the initial launch didn’t meet expectations. However, Remedy is planning a major update for the game in September, hoping it will reignite interest among gamers.
It’s an enjoyable, laid-back experience, yet once you complete it, you’ll likely forget about it and find yourself wishing you were playing Control 2 instead.
