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

Alan Wake 2 surpasses 2 million global sales, exceeding initial projections. This figure significantly surpasses the 1.3 million units sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period where Remedy Entertainment celebrated the title as its fastest-selling game.

Remedy's recent financial report to shareholders highlights this achievement, attributing the milestone to the game's success and the subsequent release of the Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition. This success has enabled the game to begin generating royalties after covering development and marketing expenses.

The report also offers updates on upcoming projects: Control 2, a collaboration with Annapurna Interactive, is nearing completion of its pre-production phase and will enter full production by late February 2025. Similarly, the Max Payne 1 & 2 Remake is progressing steadily in full production.

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

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