News Remedy: Max Payne 1/2 Remake & Condor (Control MP) go into full production in 2024 - UP: April 2024 production status

[aus89]

From their financial annual report, Max Payne 1/2 Remake will be going into full production in the coming months and expected to release in 2025-2026. The game will release as a single title for PS5/Xbox Series/PC

Condor, the Control MP game was also production ready at the end of 2023 and will head into full production in the coming months and also expected to release in 2025/2026.

Remedy state full production on their games aims to take 15-26 months.

In Condor, players will take a collective journey into the depths of the Oldest House, and face overwhelming enemies and obstacles. With overhauled tactics, new gear and the harnessing of paranatural forces where they dare, the FBC are fighting fire with fire.

Control 2 was in the proof of concept stage at the end of 2023 and will release for PS5/XS/PC

Kestrel restarted development in Feb 2024.

Currently their upcoming slate looks to have Alan Wake II DLC releasing this year, Condor/Max Payne Remake in 2025-2027 and Control 2 following that, so potentially a game every couple of years.

Awesome news. I've purchased and loved every Remedy game and it would be kooky to stop now. I hope they were able to record with James McCaffrey for the Max Payne remake before he sadly passed away.

I am so, 1000% ready for that Alan Wake II DLC. Gonna go for playthrough no. 3 whenever that gets dated.

Really wished Remedy bought Max Payne back from Rockstar.

I... really hated Max Payne 3. Or "Sorry Maxy-max, but your princess is in another level (and then she get shot, wow, thanks for nothing)".

What a pile Max Payne 3 was lol. Maybe it wasn't as obvious way back when, but it turns out that a Remedy property without their sublime absurdity layered over top is...not as interesting. Great soundtrack though:

I'm so ready to experience the fall of Max again, get all worked up, then break out 3 on PS3 and leave it on standby until auto shuts off as I down screwdrivers.

Wonder if Tencent's recent purchase of more shares will help boost the availability of some of their projects. Or if it's just Tencent doing what they do

Seems to just be Tencent being Tencent, and I assume much of it will go towards the reworked Project Kestrel which they are partnering on
