Summary
Remedy Entertainment may have just teased a DLC forAlan Wake 2. The studio previously hinted that it had prepared something for an upcoming event.
Released last October, Remedy Entertainment’sAlan Wake 2is the long-awaited sequel to the studio’s cult classic psychological thriller from 2010. It was previously confirmed that the latest entry would receive at least two paid expansions called Night Springs and Lake House. More information about these DLCs may finally be unveiled to the public soon, as Remedy Entertainment has seemingly hinted at some sort of reveal that will take place in the near future.
Remedy Entertainment recently made several changes to its Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts, which some fans speculated was a sign that the studio would soon make an announcement regardingAlan Wake 2’s Night Springs DLC. On Twitter and YouTube, Remedy Entertainment changed its name to Poison Pill Entertainment, an apparent reversal of the Finnish studio’s original label, and it also started using new imagery. A tweet with a pill emoji that tagged the officialAlan Wake 2account had a photo that featured the developer’s new logo and the phrase, “Since 1995 Night Springs City.” This can refer to the fictional Arizona town that has been featured in the series multiple times, or the in-universe TV show and video games that it inspired.
Should Remedy Entertainment announce moreAlan Wake 2content, it would likely happen very soon. The studio’s creative director, Sam Lake, seemed to have teased aRemedy Entertainment reveal at Summer Game Fest 2024, which will take place on June 7. Event organizer and host Geoff Keighley reinforced this theory by highlighting the recent changes that were made to Remedy Entertainment’s Twitter account.
