Tero Virtala, CEO from Remedy, stated the following regarding this:
“Vanguard signifies Remedy’s entry into the Games-as-a-Service model, developed by our veteran team of experts in free-to-play experiences. We’re creating something new and exciting for multiplayer co-op, with all the strengths of Remedy. Expanding our capabilities to publish this game is our next step as a company. We are excited about this long-term partnership with Tencent and we can safely say that it is an excellent partner for Vanguard’s ambitious plans.

For now Remedy He did not give more details about this game, but apparently it is still in the very early stages of its development, so you better be patient because surely there will be a long time to have news about it.
Editor’s note: Remedy has a lot of talent in their ranks, but I do worry a little that this game is going to go down the path of the infamous ‘games as a service’. Honestly, I would have preferred they continue to develop single-player titles, but I have faith that they will know how to handle this new project.
