Those of you looking for an excuse to return to Alan Wake 2 might soon have a reason to, as Remedy appears to be teasing a December release for its New Game+ update.
Back in October, just before Alan Wake 2 launched, Remedy announced that Alan Wake 2 would be receiving a couple of pieces of DLC, as well as a New Game+ mode and Nightmare difficulty level. While the DLC isn’t due out until sometime in 2024, it’s looking like New Game+ should be arriving sometime this month. Earlier this week, the official Alan Wake 2 Twitter account shared a tweet reading, “New month, new game… plus?” paired with an image of Alan shining his flashlight on a building that literally says New Game+ on it.
Now, I don’t know about you, but I think that this might be telling us that New Game+ is coming. There’s no specific date confirmed as of yet, but there’s only so many days in December it could be, so we’re sure to see it soon enough. According to Remedy, the New Game+ mode will let you keep all unlocked weapons and upgrades, and it will add some new content into the game too, including “new Manuscript pages and new video content.” If you’re a fan of Remedy Connected Universe Lore, then it sounds like the new mode will be worth playing through.
