In the case of Alan Wake Remastered, the recently released Switch version still gives the game a chance to break even, but the same shouldn’t be said about the rumored CrossfireX, with Remedy fully in charge of the single-player campaign. The good news for Remedy is that the Finnish studio developed Alan Wake Remastered, complete with a safety net provided by Epic Games Publishing.
