Alan Wake 2 Tops 2 million Sales and Finally Starts Turning a Profit

Author : Gabriella Feb 27,2025

Alan Wake 2 surpasses 2 million global sales.

This figure significantly exceeds the 1.3 million units sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period during which developer Remedy celebrated the horror sequel as its fastest-selling title.

Remedy's latest investor report reveals that this milestone, combined with the launch of the Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, has enabled the game to begin generating royalties after recovering development and marketing expenses.

The studio also provided updates on upcoming projects: Control 2, a collaboration with Annapurna, is nearing completion of its production readiness phase and will commence full production in late February 2025. Simultaneously, the Max Payne 1 & 2 Remake is progressing steadily through full production.
