help Alan Wake FAQ

Was Alan Wake developed by Remedy Entertainment?

Yes, Alan Wake was developed by Finnish studio Remedy Entertainment, the creators of the Max Payne series, and originally published by Microsoft Game Studios in 2010. The game was initially an Xbox 360 exclusive before later arriving on PC.

Do I need to play the original Alan Wake before Alan Wake 2?

While Alan Wake 2 references events from the original game extensively, Remedy designed it to be accessible to new players with in-game recap materials. However, playing the original Alan Wake and its DLC, particularly 'The Writer,' significantly deepens your understanding of the sequel's story and lore.

What platforms is Alan Wake Remastered available on?

Alan Wake Remastered is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via the Epic Games Store. The remaster includes the base game and both story DLC expansions, 'The Signal' and 'The Writer,' with improved character models and cutscene visuals.

Is Alan Wake connected to Remedy's game Control?

Yes, Alan Wake exists within the same 'Remedy Connected Universe' as Control, with explicit crossover content in the Control DLC expansion titled 'AWE.' This shared universe was further explored in Alan Wake 2, which weaves together narrative threads from multiple Remedy titles.
