Alan Wake PC Recoups Development Costs In Under 48 Hours

Despite its late release, PC faithful aren’t giving Alan Wake the cold shoulder. Remedy EVP Aki Jarvilehto has revealed in a forum post that sales of the PC version have already amassed enough revenue to recoup on development costs. What’s more, is that the feat was achieved during the first 48 hours of availability on Steam.

A look on Steam’s current top-seller chart shows Alan Wake at #2, above the just-released Kingdom of Amalur. Perhaps we’ll see a quicker turnaround time on Alan’s next PC outing with sales like this. Again, this goes to show that PC gamers are more than willing to back a quality product. Take note, Ubisoft.
