Alan Wake 2 enjoyed widespread critical acclaim upon its launch last year, while as of the beginning of February, it had also sold over 1.3 million units worldwide, becoming Remedy Entertainment’s fastest-selling game to date. In spite of a solid start, however, it hasn’t quite sold enough to start turning a profit yet.
In its recently published quarterly report, Remedy revealed that Alan Wake 2 still hasn’t fully recouped its development and marketing costs, which also means it has “not yet generated royalty revenue.” According to the developer, however, the survival horror title has recovered “significant” part of its aforementioned costs, and that its sales “have continued with a high average price.” Meanwhile, work is also continuing on the game’s upcoming paid expansions.
Alan Wake 2 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It will also add a Photo Mode with free update sometime this spring. Remedy Entertainment has also said that it intends to “grow and expand” both Control and Alan Wake franchises, and that it wants “more regular cadence of sequels” for both.
