WhenAlan Wake 2was announced in December 2021, Remedy confirmed it would show more of the upcoming game during the summer of 2022, providing an update on its development. However, the company will no longer publish a trailer or demo for the forthcoming sequel this summer, explaining that it needs more time to get it right.
“Everything withAlan Wake 2development is going really well,” said Creative Director Sam Lake. “To create a proper, polished demo or a trailer takes a lot of effort, and it’s several months of work that could take away from development,” Lake added. It’s unclear when the developer will show off more ofAlan Wake 2, but it’s possible we’ll see more by the end of the year.
Finally, Remedy provided an update in regards to the upcomingAlan WakeTV show, announcing a partnership with AMC Network. The network — best known forBreaking BadandThe Walking Dead— has acquired the rights to theAlan WakeTV series. “There’s still a long way to go for the series to become a reality, but we are excited, to say the least, about this latest development,” Remedy said.
