Why Remedy Would Be The Perfect Studio For Future Superhero Games

Expert Verified By

Remedy and superhero games would be a match made in heaven. I can only imagine what a great John Constantine adaptation from the developer would look like.

Story Highlight
  • Several games based on superhero IPs are in the works, opening up opportunities for other studios to jump in.
  • Remedy is a strong contender for this genre, considering its track record of releases like Alan Wake and Control.
  • Multiple comic book IPs would perfectly suit Remedy since the developer knows how to work with supernatural abilities.

These past few years have been quite disappointing for superhero video game fans for various reasons. One major reason is Rocksteady itself, which has now become a former shell of itself, as evidenced by its latest flop, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League.

While different studios are already developing many superhero games, the industry still has room for more releases. In my opinion, Remedy should be the next studio to pick up a superhero license.

Why it matters: Remedy has been quite consistent with its releases in terms of quality and has always delivered. Furthermore, its styles would fit well with comic adaptations, making it the best studio to collaborate with Marvel or DC.

Insomniac Sticking To Marvel Games

Insomniac is already going strong and is one of the best studios out there right now. Whether it be Spider-Man or Ratchet and Clank, the team has rarely disappointed in recent years.

Insomniac already has many superhero titles coming in the future, with the studio swinging the web from Marvel’s Spider-Man to more characters within the X-Men Universe. Marvel’s Wolverine is also expected to come out before 2026.

The team may have more unplanned releases, but Insomniac sticks to big Marvel IPs due to its contract. Going by the leaks, the developer will have its hands full with X-Men in the future, leaving the room open for other teams to jump in.

Why Remedy Would Be Perfect For The Job

Remedy’s track record has been outstanding. Even before its recent release, Alan Wake 2, the likes of Control and Quantum Break have all been solid releases that showcase the developer’s talents.

This team is also quite versatile, having worked with major publishers like Microsoft for over a decade and even Rockstar for Max Payne. Its games always have a dark and supernatural vibe to them.

I would love to see a John Constantine game, exploring more of the magical and darker side of the DC Universe fully. Control and Alan Wake are already perfect examples of 3rd person action shooter combat blended with supernatural powers.

Just a couple of years ago, there were rumors that Remedy was developing a Doctor Strange adaptation. While nothing came of these, I have no doubts that such a project would have been phenomenal.

The developer’s knack for telling dark and engaging stories would also make it appropriate for characters like Moon Knight.

The studio currently has its hands full with the Max Payne Remakes and various other projects, but I hope we can see it working on a superhero project one day. Even if this is unlikely, it would be a match made in heaven.
