But it’s Alan Wake-related!
Remedy Entertainment hasn’t put theAlan Wakeseries to bed yet. Thestudio has saidin the past that it “assumed from the get-go that there was going to be a sequel.” Ever sinceQuantum Breakwent gold last month, Remedy has hinted atAlan Wakebeing its next project — except the hinting is about as subtle as pointing a giant neon-lit arrow at the idea.
The evidence ranges fromQuantum Breakeaster eggsto anewly-filed trademarkfor the name “Alan Wake’s Return.” That trademark has been on a lot of people’s minds, as it seems like the most likely nod to a relatively-imminent newAlan Wakereveal. Except it’s not, apparently.
Kotaku UKspoke with Remedy head Sam Lake about the trademark, and Lake confirmed that it’s the name of an in-game video series. According to the report,Alan Wake’s Returnis a series of live-action mini episodes that star Lake.Alan Wakealso had in-game entertainment in the form of short TV shows, so it makes sense that a sequel would too.
As for any pertinent information confirming the nextAlan Wake? Well, Lake deflected. “We are exploring possibilities and concepting different things, but lots needs to click into place for anything to happen. We will be the first to talk about it when there is something definite to talk about,” he said.
