Back in 2012, Remedy put out Alan Wake, a pulpy third-person shooter about a troubled author literally battling the forces of darkness, as well as his own demons, with a flashlight and a gun. It didn’t light the world on fire, but over the years, it did become a bit of a cult classic, and now it’s widely regarded as this loving ode to a seemingly bygone era of strange games from massive teams. Nearly a dozen years later, Alan Wake finally received a critically acclaimed sequel, and it’s now the lynchpin to a connected universe of titles from its developer, sometimes called the Remedyverse. So if you want to jump in on one of the strangest and most exciting stories in games at the moment, why not start at the beginning? – Moises Taveras Read More
