Remedy has announced in a new press release that it expects Control 2 and its remakes of Max Payne 1 & 2 to reach the next development stage in the first half of 2024, with both projects having seen an increase in development pace.

Tero Virtala, CEO of Remedy, commented:

The successful launch of Alan Wake 2 has supported our other game projects: Condor, Control 2 and Max Payne 1&2 remake have all increased development pace thanks to the personnel released from Alan Wake 2, and we expect these projects to reach their next development stages during the first half of 2024. We now have two established franchises: Control and Alan Wake, which are linked through the Remedy Connected Universe. Growing and expanding these franchises will be a key part of our future.

Back in October last year, Remedy confirmed that Control 2 was still in the ‘proof-of-concept stage,’ so it’s obviously made some noticeable progress since then. At the same time, the studio revealed that the Max Payne 1 & 2 remakes had progressed to the ‘production readiness stage.’

While a release date for Control 2 and the Max Payne 1 & 2 remakes have yet to be announced, back in 2022 Remedy confirmed that they are expected to launch by 2025.
