Alan Wake Remastered was leaked recently through a retailer listing and it has been rumored to be announced next week.
Alan Wake fans should be excited to know that a remaster of the game is in development. It was leaked through a Taiwanese retailer with a date of October 5. We have some new information to share on this, courtesy of our own source.
- Alan Wake Remastered will use the Northlight Engine by Remedy Entertainment, previously used in Control.
- The game supports ray-tracing for reflections on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC, but not on last-generation consoles.
- There is no Nintendo Switch version. While we haven’t heard from our source about it, maybe a Cloud version can happen like Control.
- Last-generation consoles will benefit from higher resolution and QoL changes but no ray-tracing.
- The remaster will support 60 FPS.
Control Ultimate Edition is available on the Nintendo Switch but it is only playable through Cloud streaming. Remedy had released a DLC for Control that bridged the gap between it and Alan Wake setting up the lead for a potential Remedy universe.
Alan Wake Remastered will be announced next week according to analyst Daniel Ahmed. Nintendo is also rumored to host a Nintendo Direct on September 8th.
