Remedy Entertainment has been around for quite some time, with its first title, Death Rally, released back in 1996. But while Remedy found quick success in the early 2000s thanks to the original two Max Payne games, its lengthy hiatus following Max Payne 2 caused the studio to go from a well-known name in the industry to one only mentioned in a few cult circles, and the release of the middling Alan Wake in 2010 didn't help matters.
