On numerous occasions in the years since its release, fans have demanded a sequel, while Remedy themselves have spoken in no vague terms about how much they’d love to go back to the property. Despite not becoming a smash hit the way Remedy and publishers Microsoft would have expected it to, Alan Wake cultivated a devoted and fierce cult following. Most notable among its achievements were its engaging narrative, its tight writing, and the incredible atmosphere and sense of place it constantly built up.

When Alan Wake launched, it did so to great acclaim, receiving high praises all around from critics, and higher still from the larger audiences that praised it. But Remedy were perfectionists, and they spent all that time polishing up every nook and cranny of the game to the absolute zenith. Alan Wake was in development for over five years, which was a highly and unusually long period of development for a game at the time.

Expectations, then, were high from Alan Wake, following as it was in the footsteps of what are considered to be two of the most influential action titles ever made. But before there was Quantum Break, before there was the upcoming Control – which looks immensely popular – Remedy was synonymous with Max Payne.īut they sold off the rights to Max Payne, wanting instead to create something entirely new from scratch. At the same time Alan is experiencing events from the plot in his latest novel, which he cannot remember writing, coming to life.Īre you excited for Alan Wake 2? Any fans of the original against this idea at all? As always, leave any thoughts below.Remedy Entertainment have made a massive name for themselves twenty-four years they’ve been around, building a reputation as excellent storytellers and developers of tight, crisp action titles. The story of Alan Wake follows the best-selling thriller novelist as he tries to uncover the mystery behind his wife’s disappearance during a vacation in the small fictional town of Bright Falls, Washington. That is of course IF Alan Wake 2 gets announced officially at some point. I will have to make sure I schedule some time with the first game before the second one arrives. However I have always meant to play the game at least once. It would be crazy for Remedy to not make an Alan Wake 2 at this point.Ĭheck out the Twitch stream section below, courtesy of Remedy's project that they are doing together with Epic Games is ALAN WAKE 2 according to Game Mess Show mastermind Jeff Grubbįull episode: /cMzTKgMvv2ĪLSO SEE: Dallas Liu To Appear In Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten RingsĪlan Wake was released way back in the PS360 generation, so it looks a little dated to me. Personally I have never played Alan Wake, but I have friends who have an can’t wait for a sequel. Grubb is pretty reliable when it comes to games scoops and rumors, so it sounds good. This, if true, will be celebrated by fans of Alan Wake who often hail the game as one of the best ever made. Now Jeff Grubb of VentureBeat shared on Twitch recently that he think one of those two games Remedy is working on is Alan Wake 2. This fulfilled Remedy’s vision for an interconnected world containing separate stand alone games. DLC expansion for Control essentially linked it to the world of Alan Wake. Last year it was announced that Remedy, who made Alan Wake and Control had signed a deal to publish its next two multi-platform titles with Epic Games. A new rumor says that Alan Wake 2 is reportedly in development from Remedy Entertainment.
