According to Remedy's annual report, the much-anticipated Control 2 has successfully passed the concept validation stage and is now in full production. This milestone is a clear indicator of the project's forward momentum, exciting fans and stakeholders alike.
In addition to Control 2, Remedy is actively developing two other thrilling projects: FBC: Firebreak and the remakes of Max Payne 1+2. A year ago, these titles were merely in the preparation phase, but they have since progressed significantly. Unfortunately, the project Kestrel, which was being developed in collaboration with Tencent, has been canceled and removed from the studio's plans since May of last year.
All these exciting projects are being crafted using Remedy's proprietary engine, Northlight, which has proven its mettle in successful games like Alan Wake 2 and other Remedy titles.
From a financial perspective, Control 2 is budgeted at an impressive 50 million euros. The game will be self-published by Remedy and is set to launch on Xbox Series, PS5, and PC. Meanwhile, FBC: Firebreak has a slightly more modest budget of 30 million euros. This title will be accessible through PlayStation and Xbox subscription services at launch, as well as on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
The budget details for the remakes of Max Payne 1+2 remain undisclosed, but they are confirmed to be AAA-level games. Both development and marketing costs are fully covered by Rockstar Games, ensuring a high-quality experience for fans.
