Remedy Entertainment revealed that Alan Wake II’s New Game Plus feature could be released this month.
On Twitter, Remedy posted a photo showing Alan Wake flashing his flashlight at the side of building with the phrase “New Game +” and the studio said, “New month, new game…plus?” While Remedy didn’t specify what day the feature would be added, it indicates that it’ll be sometime this month. Perhaps it could be shadow dropped on a random day or announced at The Game Awards 2023.
Back in October, Remedy already confirmed that New Game Plus would be added to Alan Wake II post-launch. There will also be an alternate storyline. New Game Plus will allow players to keep all of their unlocked weapons and upgrades on the start of a new playthrough and add a new Nightmare difficulty option as well.
Alan Wake II will receive two expansions called Night Springs and The Lakehouse in 2024. GameSpot awarded the game a rare 10/10. In GameSpot’s Alan Wake II review, we said, “Remedy delivers its greatest game to date by turning a long-awaited sequel into a uniquely meta multimedia masterpiece.”
Alan Wake II comes more than a decade after the release of the first game in 2011 and its spin-off, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, in 2012. It’s available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
