Alan Wake 2 will release next month and fans of the series can’t wait to see how the story unfolds. The survival horror game is highly anticipated by fans even more so because of the fact that the original game was released over a decade ago. Sam Lake, director of the game, confirmed the title in 2021. The community has been following the game’s development closely ever since.

Now, in a YouTube podcast, Lake made an appearance to shed more light on the upcoming entry to the series. According to him, Alan Wake 2 will have the longest single-player campaign of any Remedy Entertainment title.

Alan Wake 2 is set to be the longest Remedy title

Alan Wake was a survival horror game that was released in 2012. The game’s unique take on horror and narration style were received well and the sequel aims to continue that legacy further. Director Sam Lake also recently revealed that the upcoming game was developed by a small group of designers, consisting of only 130 people. He also leaked that the original game’s opening lines were gifted by Stephen King.

Such revelations have only helped to create more anticipation for the game. Now, Sam Lake has given away more details about the game and its expected run-time.

So far, Control has been the longest single-player game by Remedy Entertainment. Sam Lake has propelled expectations for Alan Wake 2 significantly by revealing that Alan Wake 2’s story will be longer than even that.

Most Remedy games could be completed within 10 hours. For a survival horror game to have a longer campaign than twenty hours is pretty incredible and fans can’t wait to see how the story progresses after where the original game left off.

Now, with this piece of news about Alan Wake 2’s run-time, we can expect to see the studio evolve even further.

More details about the sequel revealed

Along with the duration of the campaign of Alan Wake 2, we also have a few more things to look forward to in the game. From what we’ve heard, the in-game flashlight will play a major role in the upcoming game. Puzzles and backtracking will also keep players occupied trying to figure out their next moves.

A fully revamped gameplay with dodging mechanics will also enable players to take on the game in a more dynamic way.

Sam Lake also claims that Alan Wake 2 will be one of the most radical sequels in gaming history. With so many details about the October release, we can only hope for the game to captivate us once more like its predecessor.
