Alan Wake officially confirmed by writer (Sam Lake) - via community website / covered by WCCFTech


Remedy Entertainment's writer that brought Alan Wake and Alan Wake's American Nightmare has just confirmed that the development of the previously leaked Alan Wake Remastered is currently in its finishing stages. This announcement was made on the community website The Sudden Stop. The Remaster will be released on Xbox, PC (via Epic Games Store), and, for the first time ever, PlayStation.

Sam Lake commented the following:

"Alan Wake Remastered Will Not Be Announced During This Week’s PlayStation Event – Rumor

The remaster is coming because of your support for Alan Wake through the years. That is why we felt it was fitting to make this announcement here, at The Sudden Stop, which has been an integral part of the Remedy community since back in 2012, when it started out as an Alan Wake fansite.

The original game was only available for Xbox 360 and a few years later, PC. We are thrilled about the opportunity to bring the remastered version out for a new generation of platforms. I am excited to hear what you think about Alan Wake.

Alan Wake Remastered is the original experience you fell in love with all those years ago. We did not want to change that. But the visuals all around, including the character model of Alan Wake himself and the cinematics, have been updated and improved with some choice next-generation upgrades."

Some visual improvements then. Hopefully they've reworked those characters properly because the lip syncing and facial animations were way off in the original. Also confirms EGS exclusivity on PC.

Kinda excited for this. Would be a amazing and great opportunity to add raytracing and stuff since a lot of the game is dependent on lighting.
