"Is there a disc-based version of Alan Wake 2 in the works?

There are currently no plans to release Alan Wake 2 on disc"

What an absolute joke

Well I'm out until they release a physical disc, not supporting this one bit.

Massive gut punch

NoFanBoy1009d ago

Maybe that's incorrect as it makes zero sense to loose so many potential sales.

RaidenBlack1009d ago

Remedy says a "large number" have shifted to digital and this helps keep the price of the game at $60 and the PC version at $50.

-Foxtrot1009d ago

Yeah I read it but it sounds like a bullshit justification to me

Digital games should not cost $60 to start with.

Tacoboto1009d ago

Digital games should especially not cost $60 when they only cost $50 on the publisher's own storefront.

Yui_Suzumiya1009d ago

Shoot, I'm hoping for a physical release of Alan Wake on the Switch. I got the digital but always prefer physical. That's insane that they're not releasing the second game physically.

Knightofelemia1009d ago

I collect physical not digital games. With physical if the game is an overhyped piece of shit I can trade it in or sell it and use that towards a newer better game. Even if the game is digital only it should be cheaper in price. I'll just avoid this game and wait for Slitterhead. Or even the SH2 remake is Bloober doesn't botch it up.

InUrFoxHole1009d ago

This was my favorite announcement! Day 1

ZwVw1009d ago

This was Epic's call. With the game being published by Epic Games, don't expect to see it hit sales on any other digital storefronts other than Epic's own store.

MadLad1009d ago (Edited 1009d ago )

I don't support EPIC, so I'll play the game. I just will find my ways to not give money to EPIC, and give my money to Remedy.

I love Remedy; I love Alan Wake. I just can't stand EPIC'S business practices.

Yppupdam1009d ago

HEY! THE Real Max Payne is an FBI agent in this! (I know he is one of Remedy's Developers)

A Late Look: Alan Wake 2

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "In retrospect it’s not hard to see why some people were insistently raving about this game at the end of a year as star-packed as 2023, because even among that pack it stands out as, if perhaps not the best, then certainly the boldest. Its gameplay is what it is - sometimes great, sometimes a bit underwhelming compared to everything else - but its writing and atmosphere (and soundtrack) are simply exceptional, and it’s certainly a game that has to be experienced by any longtime fans of storytelling in games."

Yeah a game without Alan Wake….for the most part

LoveSpuds83d ago

Coincidentally, I finished my play through and got the platinum trophy last night in Wake 2. Personally, I thought it was a fantastic game. Spooky at times, made me jump a bunch of times, intriguing story and such a weird but fun sense of humour. I loved it, among my favourite games I have played this year.

Storm2383d ago

It's on my list of games to play (which is way too big). Might need to play it soon. Sounds awesome.

KwietStorm_BLM83d ago

All the people who passed on this masterpiece are lost.

repsahj83d ago

This is what I am playing on my PS5 right now. Great game but I still prefer RE series.

LoveSpuds83d ago

Modern Resi games in particular have been pretty incredible, amazing how consistent the quality has been since Resi 7 really.

repsahj83d ago

Agreed, that is why I am so excited for Requiem. But this time, I will play it on Switch 2.

Dark-soul83d ago

Legendary game, if not buldurs gate 3 this would have won game of the year

Cool, Alan Wake2 I still need to try out the first one. GOAT Simulator didn’t know they even made more after the first one, I’ll give it a go for a few minutes I guess. Not sure what Cocoon is, will have to look it up. Regardless they all will be added to my library.

SonyStyled148d ago

You mean you missed GOAT 2 after the massive success of GOAT 1 and it’s DLC stories 😱

Just jump into GOAT 3 and it’ll make sense (or not, up to you as a goat).

Storm23148d ago

Alan Wake 2 and Cocoon were on my list of games to play so this month is awesome for me.

jznrpg148d ago

Pretty good month. I never played a goat simulator game. I would try it if I didn’t always have a massive backlog of games I really want to play. Maybe someday.
