The sequel to 2010’s action-horror game, Alan Wake, has reportedly moved into full production. This unannounced project is in collaboration with Epic Games as Remedy had signed a deal last year with Epic to “publish two new multi-platform games” while Remedy would have complete “creative freedom and IP ownership.”
Alan Wake 2 would also serve as a sequel to Control, given how the last time we saw Alan was in Control’s second expansion, AWE, which established both games as a part of “Remedy Connected Universe.” In a recent investor’s report, Remedy claimed that Control “has already reached a formidable audience, having been played by over 10 million players” which could be attributed to the fact that Control was free to keep on Epic Games Store earlier this year and a “bigger-budget” Control game is being planned.
It seems that Remedy’s other projects are going along smoothly as their free-to-play co-op game, Vanguard is “progressing at a good pace” and their main focus is on CrossfireHD’s campaign and Crossfire X, which are expected to launch later this year.
