Remedy revenues continue to rise in 2025, reaching €59.5m
Remedy Entertainment reported a 17% increase in revenue for fiscal year 2025, reaching €59.5 million, driven by strong sales of Alan Wake 2 and Control, as well as royalties. The fourth quarter saw a 46.3% spike to €17 million, with improved operating profit. Despite the revenue growth, the company recorded a significant operating loss of €14.9 million for the full year, largely due to the underperformance of its self-published title FBC: Firebreak.
