You know we love to put Easter eggs into our games.

But what if some of them were more than Easter eggs?

What if… it’s all connected?

By now, you have maybe seen the trailer for AWE, our next expansion for Control. For over 10 years, we’ve had a crazy dream. The idea that the tales told in some of our games would be connected to each other, a connected world of stories and events with shared characters and lore. Each game is a stand-alone experience, but each game is also a doorway into a larger universe with exciting opportunities for crossover events.

Slowly, patiently, behind the scenes, we’ve been planning and plotting to make this a reality. I’m absolutely thrilled to tell you that now, the time has come to take the first concrete step on this road, establishing Remedy Connected Universe. You have no idea how happy it makes me to be able to finally make this statement.

What took place in 2010 in Alan Wake is one of the cases that the Federal Bureau of Control has been investigating. The AWE expansion is the first official Remedy Connected Universe crossover event, bringing more Alan Wake lore into Control.

And this is still just a humble beginning. We’re already hard at work on a future Remedy game that also takes place in this same universe.

I hope you enjoy the AWE expansion.

Cheers,

Sam Lake, Creative Director, Remedy.

Excited for this! Finished Control a few months ago. Playing Alan Wake now in preparation for the Control expansion. Can't wait for more after.

Maybe its not such a bad thing they lost rights for Max Payne, eh?

 

[Zephir]

Any game where Barry and his Eye of Mordor are canon is a good game

 

[Night.Ninja]

Is control worth 20?

 

[Salmon Snake]

I need Alan Wake Remaster for PS4/PS5. Then Alan Wake 2.

 

[kiphalfton]

This was cool before the Avengers came out, but I'm kind of sick of all the interconnected worlds in TV/movies/games now. It's the safest way to ensure sales, but I would rather just have isolated, standalone stories.

 

[Danteyke223]

Is... Is Quantum Break part of the Remedy Universe or is that out of their hands ?

Yeah, this would be ideal for those who haven't yet played Alan Wake, assuming Remedy can retain the licensed music for a re-release.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

I absolutely fucking loved Control, until they stuck the DLC as Ps4 only for a long time

That shit utterly fucking stinks.

It's bollocks.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Does Remedy own the Alan Wake IP?

 

[FranXico]

Does Remedy own the Alan Wake IP?

They bought the IP from MS, yes.

 

[Elginer]

Alan Wake ps5 version when?

 

[Ovek]

Is... Is Quantum Break part of the Remedy Universe or is that out of their hands ?

Yes, or at least it was. Alan Wake is directly name dropped during the game. And if you dig hard enough in Control you will find references to QB and Max Payne.

I wonder if it's going to be another Epic exclusive.. Still haven't played Control after Epic bought the game even though I looked forward to playing it. Fuck Sweeney.

Remedy Entertainment signs with Epic Games to publish two new multi-platform games - Remedy

To give you a bit of context, back in 2016 Remedy set on our current path of becoming a studio making multiple games and have more, uh, control over our destiny. We want to be in a position where we can create our own games and IPs (and hold onto them) like we are on […]

Probably. Its good money for Remedy.

 

[Hobbygaming]

Alan Wake ps5 version when?

I wonder if a new Alan Wake was one of the rumored previously associated with Xbox games that is timed exclusive for the PS5

 

[Hobbygaming]

Yes, or at least it was. Alan Wake is directly name dropped during the game. And if you dig hard enough in Control you will find references to QB and Max Payne.

Yep and I remember a TV show in Quantum Break at the campus that looked like Alan Wake

 

[M1chl]

Is control worth 20?

20kg of Gold? Yes.

 

[SALMORE]

Cool !! loved both games

 

[KyoZz]

OH
MY
GAD

Alan Wake is one of my all time favorite game, that OST was amazing





AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

(I'm a little bit excited yeah)

 

[Grand Theft Scratchy]

Alan Wake is one of my all time favorite game, that OST was amazing

I agree, the music was great along with the small town setting, narrative and changing atmosphere. Beautiful interiors to look at as well when you weren't fighting enemies.
