    I guess we’re DMC now. I loved Control and AW2, but the gameplay for both was so-so. Glad to see they’re branching out, this looks awesome.

    Big Inception vibes, really looking forward to this one as I loved Control but didn’t like Alan Wake 2 that much

    man, i was hoping for less action more puzzles. the setting lends itself so well to that.

    Thank you Remedy for not Epic-jailing this like with Alan Wake 2! That game is such a masterpiece that more people need to play 😭

    This could be a rare day-1 buy for me, assuming they’re not doing the Epic exclusive bullshit.

    Edit: The Steam page is already up, so that’s good.

      To be fair to Remedy they only partnered with Epic to get them to fund AW2, it was either a GameStore exclusive or no game to release.

      Glad to see this on steam though.

    I missed the news about a sequel and was popping off when this showed up. Hoping it’s not as resource hungry as AW2 was, but excited either way. Control was amazing.

    I see they’re following in Hades two’s footsteps and making the protagonist the original game’s sibling. Looking forward to this! Leaving the Oldest House certainly opens up some possibilities. I hope there are still unaffected Bureau personnel to interact with still.

      I mean, the sibling you’re now playing as had a pretty big role in the first game, so it’s not that surprising. And considering that a shift in style and genre would be awkward as a direct sequel where you play the same protagonist again, so there was an obvious choice to mix things up a bit.

    Damn, is this an action game?! Only reason I didn’t like the first game is I hated the shooting. If this is truly an action RPG, like it says on Steam, with no shooting, I’m down.

    I hope there are launchers and air combos and shit.

    I was not expecting a hack’n’slash, but this surprise is very welcome.

    I love the Remedyverse and where it is going. So hyped!
