Alan Wake 2 has been announced and is coming in 2023

After a decade of waiting, fans got a chance to experience Alan Wake again last year, when the Remastered edition of the game was released, but it seems the wait for more won’t be as long as Alan Wake 2 is in development at Remedy Entertainment and is aiming for a 2023 release.

It seems the team have heard the cries loud and clear over the years for more of Alan and his adventures, even starting their statement for the games announcement with the following:

A familiar face appeared on screen at The Game Awards, and an equally familiar voice was heard. We are beyond excited to have finally reached the point of talking to you about what we’ve been working on for so long. Alan Wake is getting a sequel. 

Trust us when we say that we appreciate your undying support for us and a certain writer through the years and believe us when we add that we at Remedy are just as fond of our lost hero as you are (wild, we know!).  

“Where is Alan Wake 2?” 

Along with our partners at Epic Games Publishing, we have worked tirelessly to shed some light on what has long been obscured by darkness. After 11 long years, the writer’s return is a reality and the dangers lurking in the dark are even more sinister than the Taken roaming Bright Falls.  

Alan Wake 2 has been written into reality and it’s coming your way in 2023 for PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S|X. You read that right – Alan Wake 2 will be a truly next-generation experience.  

Not only that, but Alan Wake 2 also turns up the level of dread as our very first dive into the survival horror genre, so expect a chilling experience with familiar psychological horror elements. 

Now that the sequel has been announced and the trailer is out, we are going to go “dark” until Summer of 2022 when we’ll return to shed more light on the game. 

Thank you for your support through the years. For now – back into the darkness we descend.

So far, apart from the confirmed platforms, that is Xbox Series X|S, PC and PlayStation 5, the game will be a true survival horror experience, but for now that has to do, as we won’t hear anymore until E3 or so next year.
