IGN : In our final hands-on preview of Alan Wake 2 ahead of its October 27 release date, we played two missions midway through the game: one as FBI agent Saga Anderson, and one as tortured writer Alan Wake set in the Dark Place. Find out why we were incredibly impressed by Remedy's latest (and greatest?) game.
What happened to Tim Breaker in Alan Wake 2? A question that many are asking, though we have some theories, some pointing to the upcoming DLC
From notable remakes like 'Dead Space' to long-awaited follow-ups like 'Alan Wake II', here are TIME’s favorite games of the year.
You know you had a very rigorously competitive year with plenty of variety in opinion when neither Wonder (#7 on this list) nor Tears of the Kingdom (#4) are in the top 3.
Personally, I really enjoyed SMB Wonder and it's my personal GOTY, but my point is that this year was insane for games.
I would have played BG3 and Alan Wake 2 day 1 if they didn’t go digital only at launch. I have BG3 ordered so I’ll play it when it releases physically for PS5 but Alan Wake 2 I may end up waiting for a long time since they haven’t announced a physical copy yet that I know of.
I completely mirror those sentiments. I havent played either yet and I cant wait to either but holding on for physical or a decent sale price to go digital
Alan Wake doesn’t have the greatest combat but the tlc put into it is evident. There is definitely nothing like it.
I wouldn’t be opposed to it taking most GOTY awards.
I have yet to play Baldurs Gate 3 or Alan wake but there is no denying 2023 has been a great year for gaming. With that said, my personal favorite game this year is Dave the Diver. Pure Joy.
Duuro says: "Alan Wake 2 is undoubtably one of the finest narrative-driven experiences available on any platform currently. Remedy Entertainment has truly outdone themselves in crafting not just a great sequel, but a masterwork of storytelling, atmosphere and gameplay that will surely stand the test of time."
Too bad this isn't releasing on disc, if there was a physical copy I would support & buy. I'm not at all paying $60 or $70 for a digital only game.
My most anticipated game of the year! Remedy games are rock solid
I hear good things about the game and i will definitely get it at some point but i don't like that they have said that the game was built to be 30fps.
They have said there will be a performance mode but won't confirm it will be 60fps locked and that they are still working on it...
