Remedy Games Changes Name to Poison Pill Entertainment May 30, 2024

I noticed an odd move that seems…strangely in line with the motives of a unique independent game studio. Remedy Games, responsible for the incredible titles Max Payne, Quantum Break, Control, and Alan Wake II, has changed its name to Poison Pill Entertainment. A new company logo is now being used, changing the current Remedy “R” graphic to a similar in style “P” graphic.

No official announcement has been made of the studio’s rebranding, however their X (formerly Twitter) and Discord profiles have been updated with the new company name and logo. However, I would like to reference the timing as we are mere hours away from the release of the next PlayStation Showcase. Perhaps we will see some news from that event that could shed some light on this change.

Alan Wake II is out now for multiple platforms including PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
