What is Alan Wake 2?​

Alan Wake 2 is the celebrated sequel to Alan Wake. Since its release last October it has garnered numerous accolades and earned its place on many a end-of-year list for 2023 (even coming in as a runner-up on our Game of the Year list for 2023). In our Alan Wake 2 review we gave the game a 9/10, stating that it "delivers one of the boldest and most brain-bending survival-horror storylines this side of Silent Hill 2, presents it with uniformly immaculate art direction and audio design, and reinvigorates the series’ signature light-based shooting as though it’s been locked and loaded with a fresh pack of Energizers."

The recently-released first DLC expansion also received high praise from us. In our Alan Wake II: Night Springs DLC review, we called the expansion "a compact collection of standalone stories that veer from entertainingly violent shootouts, to tense stretches of survival horror, before settling on and reveling in the utterly batshit craziness that makes Remedy’s multiverse of madness so keenly absorbing to explore."
