Alan Wake developer cancels premium co-op multiplayer Codename Kestrel, despite "early promise"

Remedy has cancelled its premium co-op multiplayer game, Codename Kestrel.

The project - which started life as codename Vanguard, before it was rebooted last year- was being developed by the Alan Wake and Control studio, with Tencent set to handle the publishing side of things. Our other projects have advanced well and are moving to the next stages of development, and increasing focus on them provides us with benefits," Remedy's CEO Tero Virtala said today. Other games in the works at Remedy include the Max Payne 1 & 2 remakes, which are expected to enter full production during the second quarter of this year.
