Alan Wake 2's global sales have surpassed two million copies. This builds on the impressive 1.3 million units sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period that saw the game crowned Remedy's fastest-selling title. Remedy's latest financial report attributes this milestone, along with the release of The Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, to the game entering a royalty-generating phase after recouping development and marketing costs.
Looking ahead, Remedy revealed that Control 2, developed in partnership with Annapurna, has completed its production readiness stage and will enter full production at the end of February 2025. Simultaneously, the Max Payne 1 & 2 Remake continues to make steady progress in full production.

CEO Tero Virtala expressed confidence in the company's position, stating they are well-placed to begin their strategic period and have set achievable targets.
IGN's review of Alan Wake 2 awarded the game a 9/10, praising it as a superb survival horror sequel that significantly surpasses its predecessor.
