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.

    Well this is concerning. If they’re not getting any more funding from 505 to make Control 2 and Condor then, uh, who’s funding Control 2 and Condor?

      Remedy is publicly traded on NASDAQ Nordic, they can issues shares or debt for the money. But they’re probably going to buddy buddy with Epic Games again

        Well then, if that asshole Sweeney is involved, I won’t be playing this game for a decade until it gets a sensible release. Which is a shame, because the first one is such a gem.
