Remedy Entertainment creative director Sam Lake in an interview with GQ revealed he wants to develop a "crazy, huge-budget, dark gothic fantasy" game.
"Would I ever do anything else? Yeah, I'm still thinking that I will," said Lake. "There will be a time when I retire. It's just that… this has all been so engaging. One was this crazy, huge budget, dark gothic fantasy, which I haven’t used for anything yet."
Lake has worked at Remedy Entertainment since the 1990s with the first game he worked on being Death Rally as a writer. He played several roles in 2001's Max Payne, including writing the story and script, helping design levels, and became the face model for the protagonist.
He was the lead writer for 2010's Alan Wake and would be the creative director, lead writer, and more on the recently released sequel, Alan Wake 2.
Alan Wake 2 is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

He will need to approach MS or Sony for a deal to publish the game or less likely EA/T2K/Ubi
I was going to say that MS who really does not have any type of game in that area probably would be the first one I would go to but then again, Sony probably would be all for it as well. I guess it depends who has the better relationship with Remedy. The thing is, Remedy might not want to have their game locked to one platform so both might be out.
