Press Release: Remedy Launches New Look

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Espoo Finland - April 29, 1999

Today, Remedy unveiled its new logo and company look. The new logo is a combination of a stylized bullet shape and the letter "R". Shades of blue were chosen to be the company colors. Samuli Syvahuoko, Remedy's Managing Director, commented: "Remedy is all about innovative, die-hard action games, and we felt that the company's look needed to bring this fact forward more strongly. This way we aim to better establish Remedy and the games we make into the minds of the gamers."

The idea of changing the company's look had been on the agenda since early last year. The final push to go ahead with the plan came when LucasArts, a U.S. game company, contacted Remedy and said that Remedy's logo too closely resembled that of LucasArts'. Not seeing any point in modifying the old logo, Remedy removed it from its web sites, and replaced it with a question mark.

Alongside the development of Max Payne™, Remedy's next game and highest priority, the company's graphic artists started brainstorming the new company look. "Coming up with a design that everyone could identify with certainly wasn't that easy; we tried out many different and interesting ideas over a long period of time, and finally came up with a combination that all of us love." said Kiia Kallio, the artist behind the logo.
