Alan Wake 2 New Game Plus Mode Available December 11

“The Final Draft” unveils a new ending to the layered story of Alan Wake, sure to spark speculation and theories from dedicated fans. New lore can be found in the form of videos and manuscript pages that have been added to New Game Plus experience, along with other subtle additions. To access the New Game Plus mode and to fully experience “The Final Draft,” a completed playthrough of Alan Wake 2 is required. Players will retain all weapons, Charms and character upgrades earned during their first playthrough. These resources will come in handy as players attempt the ultimate challenge of the new Nightmare Difficulty level. Players will need to brace themselves for intensified enemies, strategic gameplay, and an adrenaline-pumping experience that will push their skills to the limit.

Alan Wake 2 pushes players into a psychological horror story from the perspective of two playable characters. Saga Anderson risks her life to solve a deadly mystery of murders in the Pacific Northwest while Alan Wake attempts to rewrite his reality to escape the depths of the Dark Place, a nightmare version of New York City.

Taking full advantage of the power of current consoles and PC, and driven by Remedy Entertainment’s proprietary Northlight engine, players will take on powerful supernatural enemies in desperate situations filled with intense suspense and unexpected twists. Anderson and Wake are two heroes on two desperate journeys in two separate realities, connected at heart in ways neither of them can understand.
