Alan Wake 2's global sales have soared past two million copies. This surpasses the 1.3 million sold between October 2023 and March 2024, a period where Remedy Entertainment celebrated it as their fastest-selling game. Their recent financial report attributes this milestone, along with the launch of The Lake House expansion and the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, to the game achieving profitability, generating royalties after recouping development and marketing expenses.
