Alan Wake II is Remedy's Entertainment fastest selling game, but still hasn't recouped development and marketing expenses.

Its music level released on YT gave it a lot of exposure. If even that wasn’t enough, what hope do we have for an Alan Wake 3 or Control 2 without a crappy tacked-on monetization scheme? Because thats always next if a singleplayer game series doesn’t make as much money as the publishers wanted it to.

The headline is kinda misleading. Yes it hasn’t recouped costs yet, but they sound confident it will. It’s the best performing Remedy game ever released

Edit: misleading maybe not the right word. “Doesn’t tell the full story” is probably better
