Remedy Partners With Annapurna for Control 2, Alan Wake TV and Film Projects

As a seasoned gamer with years of immersion in the vibrant worlds crafted by Remedy Entertainment, I can’t help but feel a surge of anticipation and excitement over their latest move. The strategic partnership with Annapurna promises to elevate the already captivating narratives of Alan Wake and Control to new heights, spanning across various mediums.


Remedy Entertainment has formed a strategic partnership with Annapurna, which is expected to influence the creation of “Control 2” and other television and film ventures connected to the Alan Wake and Control series. For quite some time now, it’s been known that Remedy is developing a sequel to “Control.” However, specific details about the project are scarce at this point and will likely remain so for the immediate future. Excitingly, when “Control 2” does eventually materialize, it’s anticipated that there will be more projects linked to various mediums following suit.

On their official website, Remedy Studios recently unveiled that Annapurna will finance the development of Control 2. Unlike previous games, which were published under the Annapurna Interactive label, Control 2 will be self-published by Remedy, marking a significant change in strategy for the company. Unfortunately, additional details about Control 2 were not shared with this announcement, as Remedy asked fans to be patient and promised that more information would come later.

Apart from “Control 2”, Annapurna will be helping Remedy Entertainment with projects related to Control and Alan Wake, not just in television and film, but also in other unspecified mediums. At this point, the specifics of Annapurna’s collaboration with Remedy are vague, but these additional ventures are expected to align with the broader Remedy Connected Universe.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can hardly contain my excitement about broadening the narrative of Alan Wake and the entire Remedy Connected Universe across platforms beyond games. It’s an incredible opportunity to develop this expansive vision in close collaboration with various mediums like film, TV, and more, all under one unified concept. And I wholeheartedly believe that Annapurna is the ideal partner to help us bring this dream to life.

“Remedy’s Mikael Kasurinen and Juha Vainio expressed great enthusiasm about having Annapurna join their team. The creative principles of Annapurna match perfectly with those at Remedy, making them an exciting collaborator for the upcoming project. We at Remedy have been developing Control 2 for some time now, and it’s shaping up nicely. We believe that Annapurna is the ideal partner to work alongside as we progress towards production and ultimately complete the game.”

At present, there remains uncertainty regarding the specifics of the collaboration between Remedy and Annapurna, as it has yet to fully take shape. For a while now, there have been plans for a TV series adaptation of Alan Wake, which AMC has been working on. However, no recent updates about the progress of this series have surfaced in years. At this point, whether or not this proposed show is still being developed isn’t clear.

In the coming months, Remedy plans to debut “The Lake House,” the concluding downloadable content (DLC) for “Alan Wake 2.” This expansion will launch simultaneously with a physical edition of the game that is scheduled for release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
