Remedy Entertainment's new CEO Jean-Charles Gaudechon said Alan Wake and Control should have sold more despite their critical acclaim. He plans to expand the studio's franchises through cross-media adaptations without changing its creative focus.
Gaudechon, a former EA executive, was appointed CEO in February. He told The Game Business that fans expressed strong support for Remedy and urged him not to alter the studio's direction. The executive emphasized maximizing the potential of existing games like Alan Wake and Control before developing new titles.
