Summary

  • Remedy’s online spin-off to its Control game Firebreak has failed to meet expectations on Steam.
  • The game’s underperformance prompted the studio to lean on Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus for support.
  • Despite this, the game is still set to receive a major update in September, with the developers claiming it to be a solid game to build on.
  • Meanwhile, the developer gave an update on other projects, with Control 2 and the Max Payne remake both said to be on course, whilst Alan Wake 2 and Control continue to sell well.
  • The report indicates that whilst the Firebreak launch was rocky, the studio remains committed to supporting and developing their games, even if Post-LaunchPlans may change.
