'''''Alan Wake 2''''' is 2023 survival horror game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by Epic Games, a direct sequel to 2010's ''[[Alan Wake]]'', and set in the same universe as Remedy's previous game ''[[Control]]''.

13 years after famed crime novelist Alan Wake disappeared, FBI Special Agent Saga Anderson is dispatched to the small town of Bright Falls, Washington to investigate a series of grisly ritualistic murders. Amidst her investigation, which quickly takes unexpected and terrifying turns, Saga finds pages of a manuscript detailing the events of her investigation as well as events yet to pass. All the while, Alan Wake remains trapped in the otherworldly Dark Place, trying to write an exit through Saga's adventure in the real world.

Inventory management akin to the [[Resident Evil (disambiguation)|''Resident Evil'']] series must be performed, with various supplies found throughout the game world, along with slower-paced combat. As in previous games, the primary enemies are "Taken"- humans, animals, and objects possessed by a dark force, who are vulnerable to light. Players control two protagonists, Saga Anderson and Alan Wake, who each have unique weapons. Saga can upgrade her weapons using manuscript fragments found throughout the game.
