Exciting news for fans of Alan Wake 2 as developer Remedy has officially announced two expansions set to arrive in 2024, enhancing the game’s narrative and gameplay.
Expansion 1, titled Night Springs, is scheduled for a late spring 2024 release, although Remedy notes that this timeframe may change. Night Springs promises to take players on a mysterious journey filled with visions, dreams, and the thin line between fiction and reality. Players will step into the shoes of familiar characters from the Alan Wake universe, experiencing unexplainable events in self-contained episodes of the fictional TV-show, Night Springs.
Expansion 2, known as The Lakehouse, is also on the horizon, although it doesn’t have a confirmed release window yet. The Lakehouse introduces players to a secretive facility on the shores of Cauldron Lake, established by an independent government organization for clandestine research. However, something goes awry, and players will explore the Lake House, embarking on two separate adventures that intertwine the realities of Saga Anderson and Alan Wake once more.
In addition to these thrilling expansions, Remedy has promised two free post-launch features for Alan Wake 2. Players can look forward to the introduction of New Game+ (referred to as the Final Draft in-game) approximately one month after the game’s release. New Game+ will retain unlocked weapons, Charms, and Words of Power upgrades, and it will include a new Nightmare difficulty level, fresh narrative elements, Manuscript pages, and video content. Remedy hints at a few other surprises to keep players engaged and immersed in the world of Alan Wake.
In addition to New Game+, Alan Wake 2 will also introduce a Photo Mode as a free post-launch feature. This mode will allow players to capture and share their favorite in-game moments, further enhancing the gaming experience.
Alan Wake 2 launched recently on PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. With the promise of these expansions and post-launch features, the game’s universe is set to expand and captivate players well into 2024.
