Today Remedy Entertainment released a new behind-the-scenes video for its upcoming survival horror game Alan Wake 2.
The video goes in-depth into the new character who will serve as a playable co-protagonist in the game alongside the titular Mr. Wake, Saga Anderson, a FBI agent who is intended to bring a new perspective to the series.
We hear from the developers, including creative director Sam Lake himself, and from Melany Liburd, who plays Saga. It's certainly an interesting perspective into the addition of a second character to the game.
You can check out the video below. Interestingly, it seems to be the first of a series, so we're likely to get more insight with similar videos going forward.
Alan Wake 2 will release exclusively digitally on October 17 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The release date was revealed during the latest PlayStation Showcase alongside a new trailer.
It's the direct sequel of Remedy Entertainment's critically acclaimed and fan-beloved Alan Wake, originally released all the way back in 2010 and semi-recently remastered in 2021.If you're not familiar with the game, you can read our review, with our Tyler Chancey praising it as "a stellar facelift for a beloved action-horror thriller experience" and giving it a rather enthusiastic 8.5 out of 10.
