Honestly it's probably for the best. Remedy is great at rich world building and stories, but I'm not sure that a coop multi-player game is really something I'd be all that jazzed about coming from them. Just get me Alan Wake 2 on steam and Control 2 please.
- It's for that reason I was actually looking forward to seeing it, I was curious about what Remedy could make.
  
  Army of Two with a long thought provoking campaign?

  Remedy is making Codename Condor which is a co-op multiplayer game set in the Control Universe, namely in the Oldest House.
  
  From Remedy’s business review JANUARY–MARCH 2024:
  
  Codename Condor, a part of the Control franchise, moved to full production meaning it has reached the final development stage before a game is launched. Based on wide internal playtests, we can see that the core loop is engaging, and the game brings a unique Remedy angle to the genre.
I'm making an announcement to everyone:

I'm canceling my plans for today, codenamed Kestrel. You will never know what they were.
