This year's Gamescom 2023 ONL came to a close with the unveiling of a brand new trailer for Alan Wake 2, developed by Remedy Entertainment. The trailer provided fans with a glimpse into some of the game's narrative elements. The game is set to be released on October 27 for PlayStation 5 / Xbox Series / PC (Epic Games Store).
In Alan Wake 2, a string of ritualistic murders threatens Bright Falls, a small-town community surrounded by Pacific Northwest wilderness. Saga Anderson, an accomplished FBI agent, arrives to investigate. Meanwhile, Alan Wake, a lost writer trapped in a nightmare beyond our world, writes a dark story in an attempt to shape the reality around him and escape his prison. Anderson and Wake are two heroes on two desperate journeys in two separate realities, connected at heart in ways neither of them can understand. Trapped in a sinister horror story where there are only victims and monsters, can they break out to be the heroes they need to be?
