Condor as a “service-based fixed price game”
“Based on extensive internal play testing, we find that the core of the game is addictive and the game brings a unique Remedy perspective to the genre,” the studio continued. According to Remedy, “Condor” will not be a free-to-play title, but rather a “service-based fixed-price game”. “These are premium games that have a lower starting price but a long tail of revenue through updates, game expansions and potentially microtransactions.”
“After the Hiss invasion, the Oldest House is under lock and key: a seething pot of volatile and dangerous supernatural powers. Trapped inside is the last remnant of the Federal Bureau of Control, which must fight back to regain control,” Remedy said of the multiplayer game’s plot. “The Control franchise is bigger than one story or one character. With Codename Condor we invite players on a journey together into the depths of the Oldest House.”
