Oskari Hakkinen, Chef der Franchise-Entwicklung von Remedy, spricht über die Zukunft von Alan Wake. Weil es bisher ja keine zusätzlichen DLCs mehr gibt, soll "The Writer" den Weg in diese Zukunft vorbereiten, so wie es immer geplant war. Dennoch kann der zweite Teil noch nicht bestätigt werden.
“It’s hard to talk about it,” sagt Hakkinen, “because when you have thoughts already planned out of how you want to deliver it, and you want to hit on certain notes…I feel like it’s done the right way, but only the future can tell if it was or not. It’s hard to go into it any more than that, but there is definitely a plan. We’d all love to let everything out, but when nothing is sure. Until things are written in stone or locked down, we don’t want to say out to everybody that this is what is or might…speculation is not worth the paper it’s written on. Remedy certainly wants to see more Alan Wake. We really feel like we’ve got something good here. What we’re seeing is that this seems to be a game that once people play it, they feel the urge to tell people around them that they need to try this game, play the story out. We’re finding a lot of love from the people who have played it and that is continuing our sales quite nicely. Perhaps we got off to a slow start, maybe due to a very competitive launch window, if you like. We all know that it was. But it seems to be a title that has legs and is still living. We’re still happy where we are.”
Insgesamt hört sich das aber schon mal gut an. Es ist aber nicht die erste Andeutung auf einen zweiten Alan Wake-Titel seitens Remedy Entertainment.
