in newsletterGamesIndustry.biz · 3 min read · top_stories
Remedy's new CEO Jean-Charles Gaudechon said the studio will prioritize its own IP and maximize core franchises after learning from FBC: Firebreak's underperformance. The co-op title launched June 2024 with weak sales, prompting a €14.9 million impairment and revised FY25 outlook. Gaudechon cited entering a new genre as a larger leap than anticipated and noted learnings around self-publishing, positioning, and community management. Remedy plans to expand established IPs like Control Resonant at larger scale.
