"Some of you know me as probably one of the biggest fans of Alan Wake (like Rose in the first game, except I have no shrine of him), so hearing about American Nightmare certainly gave myself and other fans hope that Alan Wake is still a game people want to play, hopefully meaning more content. Remedy have said that American Nightmare is a game for the fans, but is also a game that really anybody could pick up and play. In a way, I slightly disagree, despite American Nightmare being a game Alan Wake fans need to play. If you’ve yet to play the first game, you might not want to read any further as this game does continue on from the ending of the first game in it’s own way."
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
