Performance Mode Will be Available in Remedy Entertainment's Upcoming Survival Horror Game, Alan Wake 2

Alan Wake by Remedy Entertainment follows thriller novelist Alan Wake as he witnesses his horror stories come to life in visceral form. In a conversation with IGN, Sam Lake, the Creative Director of Remedy, shared that the game will focus more on survival and exploration than its predecessor, which focused on combat. While Alan Wake 2 will continue Alan's story, Saga Anderson, an FBI agent, will share her story as the second protagonist. Alan Wake 2 will provide two different stories and perspectives thanks to two protagonists, as the tale swaps the leads in between.

While the developers focused on building solid visuals and ambience, they plan to add Performance Mode to Alan Wake 2 from the beginning on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. While more details aren't out, the consoles will undoubtedly have the Performance Mode option. Alan Wake 2 will be available to play on PC via Epic Games, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 from 27 October 2023. Fans can pre-order the game at a base price of $49.99 for Standard Edition and $69.99 for Deluxe Edition from their website.
