Exciting announcement. Two of the best creative and narrative focused companies in gaming.

That seems like a huge step for Anapurna too, doesn't it?

Not really I don't think ... Anna Purna already publishes a lot of games and has published a lot of notable films in the past few years.

I feel like if anything it's most notable because Anna Purna has deeper pockets than Remedy, more experience in film and television, and produce notably high quality creative and narrative work, meaning that they're unlikely to screw up Remedy's writing chops and can legitimately help them expand their mixed media ambitions.

I am just now learning from your comment that Annapurna does film! I just know them from Kentucky Route Zero and Outer Wilds. Crazy, I thought they were just a gaming company.

It's Outer Wilds, no "The".
Sorry for being pedantic :p
