Control may warrant consideration as somewhat of a sleeper hit. The title hit store shelves in late August, but never managed to become a chart-topping success. At the end of the day, however, this doesn?t spell doom for developer Remedy Entertainment. Interestingly, because of the title?s roughly ?30 million budget, even mild success for Control is a win for Remedy.
The studio?s CEO, Tero Virtala, explained as much during a recent interview with GamesIndustry.biz. Due to the team?s budget and development time on Control, Remedy remains in a ?good position.? This is thanks in large part to the game?s ?steady sales,? which may see an increase as time goes on. Virtala told the publication,
