Yesterday Remedy unexpectedly dropped their name game called "Control" and it's the game that was teased by remedy long time ago under the project name of "P7"
I was watching the presentation with some of my friends online and when the trailer came up every one of us immediately said this is the sequel or spin-off to quantum break because there is no way you cannot notice the similar difference between these two.
Remedy revealed that Alan Wake 2 has recouped most of the investment made by Epic. They also talked about more regular sequels for their IPs.
Damn. I was hoping this would happen faster. Control were both fantastic, albeit flawed. Hoping for more. I know he said they are planning sequels, but its hard to get investors and publishers on board when they don't see quick returns.
For how much people talk about this title you would think it was a much bigger success. Popularity doesn't equal quality and vice versa tho
Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.
Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.
Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.
About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.
Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop
Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.
I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well
Remedy Entertainment has announced that they've purchased the full rights to the Control franchise from 505 Games.
Nope
I got a very QB vibe from the trailer. Either way I'm going to buy it!
I liked QB as far as the abilities. The pacing was really off though as far as the storytelling. It was an interesting experiment but hopefully they learned their lesson and will do it better for Control. I am excited. Remedy is still one of the best studios out there.
No, Remedy doesn't own Quantum Break. Control could be considered a spiritual successor to Quantum Break, however the game bares similarities to Remedy's other stylized shooters.
About 10 seconds into the trailer I started thinking about QB...so either I am psychic or they are very similar.
