Ever since the release of the first Alan Wake Game in 2010, lots of players have been anticipating the sequel – Alan Wake 2 which is expected to be a survival horror game. Judging from the official gameplay trailer video released by PlayStation on their official YouTube Channel, it’s going to be a bit scary with not so much gory scenes included as it possesses some Horror themes.

Just as in the first game which focuses on the main character Alan Wake, Alan Wake 2 will also focus on the title character. Although Alan Wake won’t be the only protagonist, but also another character named Saga Anderson, who is a notable FBI agent with a reputation for solving impossible cases. The storyline follows up on her arriving at Bright Falls to investigate some murders. According to official info from PlayStation on Alan Wake 2:

Anderson and Wake are two heroes on two desperate journeys in two separate realities, connected at heart in ways neither of them can understand: reflecting each other, echoing each other, and affecting the worlds around them.

Hence, players will be able to switch between both characters in game, one could choose to either play from Alan Wake’s perspective or from Saga Anderson’s perspective. As the game is set to release October 17th, 2023, the pre-order for the game will be available in 2 separate editions, the Standard Edition Pack and the Deluxe Edition Pack.

The Standard Edition Pack:

Standard Edition Pack is expected to contain the following resources and content:

Is the Deluxe Edition Worth It?

The worth of the Deluxe edition is mainly based on player taste. Some players might prefer just the Survival Pack and the Revolver Skin granted by the Standard Edition of the game. Whilst some players may intend to go for the Deluxe Edition because of the 2 extra DLC maps available as well as other numerous character cosmetic skins and resources that can be redeemed.
