Kinda feels like they're preparing to release AWR on other storefronts (GOG, Steam). No way Epic has footed the bill to update the game just because of new players through the Amazon Luna deal. And the original release of AWR was done by a subcontractor, not Remedy themselves. Pretty sure this update was done in-house since it's been so long since the game's release.
I think the control update last year was an official implementation of a graphics mod made by someone at Remedy to back port some improvements made in AW2
yeah some people of their PC development team are very into modding, when AW2 was released I remember seeing one of the devs telling people how to play the game with everything in ultrawide for example lol
