In late October, fans and developers of Alan Wake 2 celebrate the project’s third anniversary. Remedy Entertainment decided to release a special trailer for the game in honor of the celebration.
Through it, the developers remind players that “making games is still HARD.” In the course of their work, they encountered a wide variety of difficulties.
Alan Wake 2 fans are invited to take a look at the bugs—some turned out funny, while at times the scenes become quite creepy. For example, during development, animations could glitch severely: the body of the protagonist, Alan Wake, would sometimes abruptly snap around or begin contorting and twisting into strange poses.
Other NPCs could also glitch: in one scene while exploring the street, the protagonist encounters a bugged FBI agent.
Alan Wake 2 was released on October 27, 2023, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles, and is available on PC via the Epic Games Store. Over the past years, the developers released several story expansions for the game: Night Springs and The Lake House.
Last month, the GamesVoice studio updated the Russian voiceover for Alan Wake 2: players will be able to appreciate localized versions of the songs.
