[QUOTE="Admin, post: 63126, member: 1"] In its quarterly earnings presentation, Remedy Entertainment shared an update on its remake of Max Payne 1 and 2, as well as the news that Tencent has nearly tripled its investment in the studio. In a report for shareholders, Remedy announced that Max Payne 1 & 2 remake is expected to move into "full production" during Q2 of 2024 (April through June of 2024). Additionally, Codename Kestrel — Remedy's upcoming multiplayer action game formerly known as Vanguard — is still in the concept stage. Elsewhere, the Control 2 team is finalizing its proof of concept and is expected to advance to the "production readiness stage" during Q2. Codename Condor, a multiplayer game set in the Control universe, is in "the final development stage before a game is launched," or full production. With all these games in the cooker, Remedy has received a new infusion of cash from existing stakeholder Tencent. Previously, Tencent [URL='https://www.gamesindustry.biz/tencent-acquires-3-8-percent-stake-in-remedy']acquired a minority (3.8%) stake in Remedy[/URL] that it later upped to 5%. Today, Remedy announced that Tencent [URL='https://investors.remedygames.com/announcements/remedy-entertainment-plc-tencent-holdings-limiteds-shareholding-in-remedy-has-gone-above-the-10-percent-threshold/']increased its stake again to 14.8%[/URL], nearly triple what it was prior.
