With the title being a sequel and part of the same universe as Control players are a bit lost in deciphering what Alan Wake 2 is about. Will gamers have to play the previous Remedy Entertainment titles or can they begin their adventures with the new horror title?

Gamers will not only play Alan Wake in this new installment of the franchise but also will be in control of Saga Anderson, an FBI profiler. Anderson discovers pages of a horror story, a horror story that starts to come true. Alan is a lost writer trapped in a nightmare prison beyond our world. When the two of them connect their separate realities are connected in ways neither of them can understand. Now they must find a way to wake up from this never-ending horror show.
While it’s true that Alan Wake 2 is a sequel, gamers don’t have to play the first title. With it also being in the same universe as Control, gamers will not also be expected to complete that game. The sequel is set up so newcomers can enjoy without the need for past knowledge of the previous game. Returning fans though are given connecting lore and references.
Currently, Alan Wake 2 has 2 different versions to choose from, each one providing its bonuses and perks.
Standard Edition $59.99
Deluxe Edition $79.99
