"Virtala was Remedy's CEO since 2016. A search is now underway for a new CEO, Remedy said, and for the time bing, Virtala will "continue at the service of the company" as part of the handover process. Remedy co-founder Markus Mäki is taking over as interim CEO. He is vacating his position as chairman of the board and will be replaced in that position by Henri Österlund."
"Earlier in October, Remedy said FBC: Firebreak had "weak" sales, and as a result, the company was booking a loss of $17 million. Remedy undertook efforts to help FBC: Firebreak attract and retain more players, but those efforts do not seem to have worked out like Remedy envisioned. The game peaked at 1,992 players on Steam following its release in June but has just 10 players on Steam today."
