Alan Wake returns in Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, the recent addition and sequel to 2009’s Alan Wake. Following where the events of the original left off, American Nightmare has the titular hero making his way through the dark place, so full of creative energies, that it has suddenly manifested itself back in the real world somewhere in the middle of Arizona as the fictional town of “Night Springs.” Wake is once again dealing with Mr. Scratch, the two of them trapped within a story of his own creation that he cannot remember (seems a little redundant, right?).
Welcome back Link Cable Gaming fans, by far one of my favourite surprises of the Game Awards was the surprise announcement of Alan Wake 2. Alan Wake developed by Remedy Entertainment, and released in May 2010 on the Xbox 360, Alan Wake 2 will finally be brought back. While we were treated just this year to the surprise Alan Wake Remastered earlier in October 2021, or Alan Wake’s American Nightmare in February 2012, fans never got a true sequel. What will the future of the Alan Wake franchise look like?
Perfect! a sequel that will remind me of the smell of mildew and damp coffee grounds with a side of deadly premonition.
Where else would the franchise go? Seems like a sure thing. American Nightmare should be in the remake though.
You know I was thinking alternatives right?
For all it could have been, you know how the sequel market is sometimes, weird spin - offs, spiritual successors, reimagining, a VR walking simulator (bleh) and all that.
I like the idea of an evolved sequel way more

The author must've been smoking crack, American nightmare does not have the same excellent production, suspense or graphics like the first one. I love Alan wake. Yes, the game could've done a lot of things better but I was pretty much satisfied from what they offered. As far as improvements go, I'll save that for part 2. Alan wake was very much underrated. It's a classic game. I love the story. It's a 9/10. The only thing that is great about American nightmare is the weapons.
