This situation highlights the unique nature of Alan Wake 2's exclusivity. Unlike many Epic Games Store exclusives, Epic Games not only published the title but also co-funded its development with Remedy.

Interestingly, the game reportedly hasn't yet reached profitability over a year after its launch.
