Alan Wake 2 is doing so well in development that the game is fully playable. So says Remedy Entertainment CEO Tero Virtala.
While speaking to shareholders during an earnings call, Virtala said that the sequel to 2010’s Alan Wake the game has reached a point in development where it can be played from start to finish.
“Alan Wake 2 is in full production,” he said. “The game will soon have all content in place, and it is playable from start to finish. We will then move on to polishing the experience.
“Alan Wake is a unique brand that holds high value for the company today.”
The game has been in development for a few years now but went into full production back in May 2022. Motion and voice capture began in July.
What Is Alan Wake 2?
“After 11 long years, the writer’s return is a reality and the dangers lurking in the dark are even more sinister than the Taken roaming Bright Falls.,” the company said when it revealed the game. “Not only that, but Alan Wake 2 also turns up the level of dread as our very first dive into the survival horror genre, so expect a chilling experience with familiar psychological horror elements. “
Though information on the game has been scarce since its reveal back in December 2021, it’s expected that more details will start to be revealed in the coming months. That includes information on gameplay features, the game’s story, and even a look at actual gameplay from Remedy.
Alan Wake 2 is currently scheduled for a 2023 release for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
