Remedy Entertainment, the developer of the acclaimed Alan Wake series, has announced the PC system requirements for the upcoming sequel, Alan Wake 2. The game, which is set to release on October 27, 2023, will require a very powerful PC to run smoothly, especially if players want to enjoy the ray tracing and path tracing features. The game will also take up a whopping 90 GB of SSD storage space.
The game will support DLSS and FSR 2 technologies
The PC system requirements for Alan Wake 2 range from minimum to ultra, depending on the graphics preset, resolution, and frame rate that players want to achieve. The game will also support DLSS and FSR 2 technologies, which are designed to improve performance and image quality by using AI and upscaling techniques. However, even with these technologies enabled, players will need a high-end GPU and CPU to play the game at its best.
The game will feature a new protagonist and a new setting
Alan Wake 2 is a survival horror game that follows the story of Alan Wake, a writer who is trapped in a dark dimension called the Dark Place. The game will feature a new protagonist, Saga Anderson, an FBI agent who is investigating a series of ritualistic murders in Bright Falls, Washington. The game will also feature a new setting, New York City, where Alan Wake’s writings have manifested into reality. The game will have a darker tone and more action-oriented gameplay than the previous installment.
The game will be exclusive to Epic Games Store on PC
Alan Wake 2 will be exclusive to Epic Games Store on PC, meaning that players will need an Epic Games account and launcher to play the game. The game is currently available for pre-order for $59.99 USD. The game will also be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. The game will not have any multiplayer or co-op modes, but it will have some post-launch content planned.
The game will be a continuation of the original story and the spin-off
Alan Wake 2 will be a continuation of the original story and the spin-off, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare. The game will also have some connections to Remedy’s other games, such as Control and Quantum Break. The game will feature some familiar characters from the previous games, as well as some new ones. The game will also have some Easter eggs and references to other media and pop culture.
