How it feels

A tense, atmospheric survival horror that claustrophobically blends reality and nightmare with deliberate pacing and unnerving mystery.

About

Alan Wake 2 marks Remedy Entertainment’s first foray into the survival horror genre. Ritualistic murders in a small town. A writer trapped in a nightmare. An FBI agent looking for answers. Two realities. Two hero characters. One horror story that wants them dead.
