Remedy announced on Monday that the company's Board of Directors has appointed Jean-Charles Gaudechon as the company's new CEO, effective March 1, 2026. Gaudechon's profile appears to be well-suited to Remedy's strategic development phase, in which the company is currently preparing for significant game releases. We do not expect the CEO appointment to cause any fundamental changes to Remedy's strategy, as the company is now moving into a phase of profitable growth after years of investment.
Gaudechon has over 20 years of leadership experience in the global gaming and entertainment industry. He has previously held senior management positions at international gaming companies such as Electronic Arts and CCP Games, where he held full profit and loss responsibility. Markus Mäki, the company's founder, who has served as interim CEO since October 2025, will continue in his role until the beginning of March. Mäki will then continue to support the new CEO.
