The once-unlikely sequel to Alan Wake has even more surprises on the way, as Remedy just announced Alan Wake 2 DLC, Night Springs, launches tomorrow on June 8. That’s also when pre-orders for a physical run of Alan Wake 2 open up, too.
In Alan Wake 2’s additional saga, three characters will contend with the Dark Place again in self-contained episodes. According to its PlayStation Blog description, those tales play out with familiar, but new, faces in a TV show the tortured artist once wrote for, Night Springs.
Notable Remedy/Alan Wake characters include likenesses to Jesse Faden, Rose Marigold, and Shawn Ashmore / Sheriff TImothy Breaker.
The Alan Wake 2 Expansion Pass — included in the digital deluxe edition — covers the Night Springs DLC. However, if you’re looking to pick it up separately, Night Springs runs $20. If you’re ordering the new physical deluxe or collector’s editions of Alan Wake 2, those also include the expansion content.
Tomorrow’s big updates also include a free Photo Mode, taking inspiration from Alan’s wife, a professional photographer, and adding settings like f-stop, focal length, and other effects you’d find in similar, dedicated modes. But this is Remedy, so of course, I’ve got loftier expectations for how I want my Alan Wake 2 photography to shape up.
