Remedy har købt alle rettigheder til Control fra 505 Games

I en handel til en værdi på 17 millioner Euro (126 mio. kroner), har finske Remedy købt alle rettigheder til Control, Control 2, Control multiplayer spin-off'en Codename Condor og fremtidige spil i serien fra 505 Games.

Remedy slog sig sammen med 505 Games om udgivelsen af Control i 2017 og udgav spillet to år senere i 2019. Spillet har solgt over 4 mio. eksemplarer og har genereret en nettoomsætning på omkring 100 mio. Euro (745 mio. kroner), som skal deles mellem Remedy og 505 Games.

Remedy CEO Tero Virtala siger:

As part of Remedy's long-term strategy to have more ownership over our business and the IPs we have created, we have gotten back all rights for Control and the in-development Condor and Control 2.

Having complete ownership over the Control franchise gives us the freedom to decide the best path forward. We will consider our options carefully, knowing that Control is considered an attractive franchise by many partners.

Condor and Control 2 have both progressed well in recent months and we expect these projects to reach their next development stages during the first half of 2024.
