But in an interview with IGN (watch it below), Remedy creative director Sam Lake says the team is going full-speed with the survival-horror genre and has the freedom of an M rating to chase this creative vision. Since then, however, news regarding the game has proven to be extremely sparse, although Sam Lake confirmed last May that development was happening. This is an important distinction because the first Alan Wake was more akin to a psychological thriller. Lake further added that players will not need to play the previous games in order to understand Alan Wake II. Sam Lake's avoidance of gameplay-related specifics in a recent interview with IGN's Ryan McCaffrey piqued the curiosity of many a longtime fan in this regard. Claimed by gamers for over a decade, Alan Wake’s return was finally confirmed at The Game Awards 2021, where Remedy officially announced Alan Wake 2. According to Sam Lake, the game will be powered by Remedy's own Northlight Engine, and will be a survival horror game as opposed to Alan Wake, which is an action game with horror elements. The shift to survival horror, of course, raised questions about a potential perspective change from third to first-person. It needs to be done right if its ever done. I feel that the bar is higher in some ways. Rather, Remedy Entertainment is using the Alan Wake sequel as its first foray into the survival horror genre, leaning heavily into elements that were merely touched upon in the original entry. On this months episode of IGN Unfiltered, famed Remedy games writer Sam Lake stated that he still wants to make a proper Alan Wake 2.
While the titular hero and his nightmarish world should remain at the nexus of the experience, the sequel won't come in the form of another action-focused adventure. The surprising news came with a bit of a twist, though. Despite the rumors that crop up every so often, Alan Wake 2's Game Awards announcement took much of the industry by surprise late last week. For the anniversary, Vida Starevi sat down with Sam Lake, Ilkka Villi, and Matthew Porretta to talk Alan Wake 2, the TV. Sam Lake has addressed questions about Alan Wake II 's switch to survival horror in so doing, the Creative Director confirmed the sequel will be played from the third-person perspective. Control has been extremely successful for Remedy, selling over 2 million copies to date, and Remedy creative director Sam Lake said that a new game was on the way back in August 2020 while.
