  • Alan Wake 2 Interview with Sam Lake | Summer Game Fest 2023
    In the recent interview with Sam Lake, we get some exciting details about the highly anticipated game, Alan Wake 2. Sam Lake, from Remedy Entertainment, had previously announced the game at the Game Awards 2021, and now he's here to give us more insights.
    Firstly, Sam confirmed that Alan Wake 2 is set to release in October 2023, much to the delight of fans who have been eagerly waiting for the sequel. It has been a long time coming, considering that the first Alan Wake game was released 13 years ago.
    According to Sam, Alan Wake 2 will be Remedy's first survival horror game. The game will feature two playable characters, with the narrative split equally between them. Each character will embark on their own terrifying journey through different worlds. However, despite their separate paths, everything in the game is interconnected. Players will have the ability to switch between the two characters at specific points in the story.
    During the interview, Sam also revealed the second character in the game, Saga. Saga is located in Bright Falls and is living a narrative that Alan has written. She is an FBI agent who arrives in the small town of Bright Falls alongside her partner, Alex Casey. The two characters are linked in some way and are investigating a series of ritualistic murders.
    As the release date approaches, fans can look forward to getting their hands on Alan Wake 2, a game that promises to deliver a thrilling and interconnected survival horror experience. With its intriguing storyline and dual character gameplay, Alan Wake 2 is set to captivate players and immerse them in a world filled with darkness and mystery.

  • It's coming this October.
  • And we are so excited about this, Sam.
  • I know it's been a long time coming for fans and for you, 13 years since the first Alan Wake.
  • So tell us a bit about what can we expect in the sequel?
  • It's been quite a journey, yes.
  • Alan Wake 2 is Remedy's first survival horror game.
  • We have two playable characters.
  • It's a 50-50 split between them.
  • They are on their own separate terrifying journeys through two different worlds.
  • And yet it's all connected.
  • And the player gets to switch between them at given points in the story as they choose.
  • Yeah, we saw, obviously, at the PlayStation event, you revealed Saga, the second character.
  • Tell us a bit about her.
  • She's in Bright Falls and she's sort of living a narrative that Alan has written.
  • Is that right?
  • Well, that's a good question to ask going into this.
  • So, yes, we have Alan Wake, our title character, of course, trying to escape from the nightmare dimension of the Dark Place.
  • And then we have Saga, our new hero, FBI agent, coming to the Pacific Northwest small town of Bright Falls together with her partner, Alex Casey.
  • Okay.
  • And they're somehow linked in some way, right?
  • They are coming to investigate a series of ritualistic murders.
  • Okay.
  • And very quickly, the investigation turns into a nightmare when they discover pages of a horror story, maybe written by a certain missing writer.
  • By the initials A.A.W.?
  • And this horror story starts to come true around them.
  • Interesting.
  • So, obviously, Alan is still going to be playable in the game.
  • You're going to experience his journey.
  • But Saga, this is her new character.
  • And there is that sort of link.
  • Tell us a bit about, you said, split 50-50.
  • Do they have separate missions?
  • Because I think you can play them in sort of different sequences or orders if you want, right?
  • Yeah, we go into the experience playing as Saga.
  • And it's a sequel, but it's also a standalone experience.
  • We are not expecting everybody to do homework if they have not played the original game.
  • This can be enjoyed as is.
  • Saga doesn't know anything about the lore, about the supernatural in this world.
  • She will be going in very quickly.
  • She has to learn to survive.
  • And with that, all the players will be on that journey with her.
  • And then we open up the experience so that you can hop to play Alan Wake in the Dark Place as he's trying to find his way out.
  • And you can keep on playing as Saga in the Pacific Northwest as the investigation goes on.
  • And you are free to switch between them.
  • There are a lot of connection points.
  • Yes.
  • In many surprising ways.
  • But there is no right way to play through this.
  • You can choose.
  • You can go on as Alan all the way close to the end, or as Saga, or you can keep hopping between these two sides of it.
  • Well, you're always so good at kind of telling challenging, interesting narratives in unique ways.
  • I mean, Remedy's always been known for that, and you especially.
  • So we can't wait to see how these stories intertwine, I'm sure, throughout the experience.
  • Today, though, I know you brought with you some gameplay of Saga's adventure.
  • We're just going to see a raw segment of the game, right?
  • Yeah.
  • Raw gameplay for the first time ever.
  • This is early on from the experience.
  • They're hyped, Sam.
  • They're ready for it.
  • So tell us, what are we going to see?
  • Supernatural forces of darkness have brought the murder victim, in this case, back to life as a monster.
  • And Saga is outside Pride Falls at Cauldron Lake, trying to find him and stop him.
  • Okay.
  • With that, let's take a look at raw, unedited gameplay from Alan Wake 2. Thanks, Sam.
