Alan Wake 2 – The Lake House Releases on October 22

Remedy Entertainment and Epic Games are excited to announce the release of The Lake House, the second expansion for Alan Wake 2, launching on October 22, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via the Epic Games Store.



 

In The Lake House, players will uncover the secrets of a mysterious Federal Bureau of Control (FBC) facility on the shores of Cauldron Lake, where a catastrophic event has torn the veil between reality and the Dark Place. As FBC Agent Kiran Estevez (played by Janina Gavankar), you’ll explore the twisted depths of the Lake House, a place where paranatural research has gone horribly wrong.

This expansion offers a gripping survival horror experience that unfolds parallel to the main game. As you explore the facility’s warped corridors and sublevels, you’ll encounter “The Painted,” horrifying entities born from the collision of the Dark Place and the Pacific Northwest.

Adding to the tension, The Lake House expansion features a new song from Poe (6 Deep Breaths) and an end-of-chapter track by composer Petri Alanko featuring Amelia Jones (End of an Era).

Alongside the expansion, the classic Alan Wake outfit from the original game makes a return as part of the Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition. Physical Deluxe Editions for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X will also be released on October 22nd containing a reversible cover sleeve with exclusive artwork and a digital download code for Alan Wake Remastered.\

A free Anniversary Update will launch on the same day and is available for all owners of Alan Wake 2. The update includes an Assist Mode, which offers features like immortality and unlimited resources to make the experience more accessible to all players of all skill levels. The update also features a host of requested accessibility options such as sprint toggling, motion aim for PlayStation 5, and more.

For those who want to expand their experience, The Lake House is included in the Alan Wake 2 Expansion Pass, which also features the previously released Night Springs expansion. The Expansion Pass is included in the Deluxe and Collector’s Editions and is available as a digital Deluxe Upgrade for Standard Edition players.

The Lake House will be available on October 22, 2024. Prepare to face the darkness once again and discover what awaits within the shadows of Cauldron Lake.
