Alan Wake Remastered recoups development and marketing costs after two years

https://www.gamedeveloper.com/busin...velopment-and-marketing-costs-after-two-years

Alan Wake breaks even, showing the value in remastering and remaking older titles. It makes obvious sense to push for something like this when you're making a sequel to a game that could have experienced a larger audience but for one reason or another couldn't at the time.

Gaming was in a weird space in 2010 when the first game came out. Same with the Dead Space remake (original game came out in 2008).

Releasing a high-quality sequel has the potential to help push the sales of a remaster/remake and can help as a franchise breath new life into IP. The remaster probably helped the sales of the sequel and vice versa.
