Why Alan Wake 2 Was Delayed - New Release Date And Explanation
Wazzup Everyone, welcome back!
Alan Wake 2, the long-awaited sequel is on the horizon, and it promises to be a spine-tingling adventure into the unknown. Remedy Entertainment has been hard at work, and anticipation for Alan Wake 2 has been steadily building. However, there's some bad news about the release date.
Competing in a Crowded Month
This decision is likely influenced by the fact that Alan Wake 2 was initially scheduled to launch just three days before two heavy hitters, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Bros. Wonder, both of which are set to release on October 20. By moving the release date ahead, Alan Wake 2 will have more breathing room, allowing players to fully savor these exciting titles.
New Release Date
Alan Wake 2 was originally set to grace our screens on October 17. However, it seems we'll have to exercise a little more patience. The game has been delayed, and its new release date is October 27.
What to Expect in Alan Wake 2
Alan Wake 2 picks up 13 years after the events of the original game and features two protagonists: the eponymous author and FBI agent Saga Anderson. Saga is on the trail of a murder case in the Pacific Northwest, while Alan has been trapped in the nightmarish realm of The Dark Place since the conclusion of the first game. Players will have the freedom to switch between both characters and choose how much of their stories they wish to explore. Remedy has emphasized that this sequel is a pure survival horror experience, promising spine-tingling thrills.
Where to Play
When Alan Wake 2 finally arrives, you can experience the horror on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via the Epic Games Store.
So, mark your calendars for October 27, and get ready for a nightmarish journey into Alan Wake's world. It's going to be worth the wait.
