Today, on February 28, nearly five years after Control’s initial launch, Remedy Entertainment, the team behind the Alan Wake, Quantum Break, and Control series, released an announcement regarding a deal between them and 505 Games, detailing a full transition to Remedy acquiring full rights to the franchise. While Remedy Entertainment previously developed the game with 505 Games having publishing, distribution, and marketing rights over Control, this latest transaction converts this authority to Remedy, giving them full rights over Control, Control 2, and their upcoming multiplayer game currently under the code Condor.

      Seriously. I want to play Alan Wake 2, but not if it’s on Epic’s store.

        Epic funded that and allowed them to take the risk. In that case they’re the good guys, so I don’t see the point in being a hardliner about their store. Use Playnite if you are adamant about having all your games in one launcher!

          I used those other means but would like to give them money for a fantastic game.

          Remedy deserves the purchase though the game is fantastic, epic drama aside, but I hear ya.

        Asian Wake 2 will likely never come to another platform. It’s published by epic games. Not a timed exclusive situation.

            So play it. Support the developer. I’m staunchly anti epic, Alan Wake 2 has been my only exception.

      I’d be happier if they release on GOG

        I will fully support this once they release GOG Galaxy for Linux. Which is never.

      Tim Sweeney has an infinite money hack called “Fortnite” and he uses it to get exclusive games
