Throw in the fact it’s the first time the game will be available on PlayStation, and Alan Wake Remastered more than earns its place in the current gaming marketplace.įor the uninitiated, Alan Wake sees the titular character, a successful writer who’s suffering from a mental block, travel to the town of Bright Springs with his wife in order to relax. For new players, this is the ideal jumping on point. Even though it’s already available via Xbox’s backwards compatibility program, £25 is a hard offer to decline for a great horror game, even if you’ve already played it before.
In a world where £40+ is considered normal for a re-release, offering this remaster for just £25 is perfect. Right out the gate, Alan Wake Remastered does a lot of favours for itself with its incredibly reasonable pricing. Combine those with some improvements to the game’s textures, lighting and loading times, and you have a bundle worth investing your time and money in.
While there have been a few headscratchers over the years, with some more on the horizon, it’s hard to deny that there’s always going to be a place for a smart, intelligent remaster, and Alan Wake Remastered fits that description.Īs you’d expect from the name, Alan Wake Remastered bundles together the full Alan Wake experience, plus both DLC expansions The Signal and The Writer, along with a complete commentary track from director Sam Lake. Like them or not, remasters and ports are here to stay, though I think we can all agree there’s a few out there that are a bit more egregious than others.
