To start off the developers announced some financial results regarding the latest fiscal year (2016). Stating in a press release, the company ended the year with a "revenue of €16.4 million, a year-on-year revenue growth of 19.4% and an operating profit of €3.9 million." Remedy cites the launch of Quantum Break (released in April for XBOX One & Windows 10 and September for Steam) as the fuel behind the success.
Last Tuesday (4th April), Remedy appointed two new board members; Henri Österlund (founder of Accendo Capital) and Jussi Laakkonen (CEO of Unity Technologies Finland).
