Arriving in October 2023 with a lot of anticipation, Alan Wake 2 is the follow-up to the fan-favorite Alan Wake after 13 years and two console generations. Studio Remedy (Control, Quantum Break, Max Payne) has produced a full-time survival horror game that truly feels like a unique experience that you won’t find anywhere else.
Alan Wake 2 picks up 13 years of in-game time after the original, with a story split between two characters: famous horror writer Alan Wake, stuck in the Dark Place, and Saga Anderson, an FBI agent investigating strange happenings in the Bright Falls area. With the vibe of Twin Peaks, The X-Files and more dark horror, Alan Wake 2 is an amazing game, containing parts of the so-called “Remedyverse” as the world of Wake absorbs material and characters from Control and other games in the studio’s lineup. And if it’s not spoiled for you, there’s a musical number (seriously) in the game, as has become a tradition in Remedy’s works, that will have you pumping your fists in raucous joy.
Remedy Survivor released its first downloadable expansion, Night Springs, in mid-2024. The second, Lake House, came in October of that year. This requires the expansion card, which is included with the digital or physical Deluxe Edition – in short, you just need to upgrade to or purchase the Deluxe Edition of Alan Wake 2 to get access to both.
