Survival horror game fans are definitely in for some seriously juicy reveals during Summer Game Fest 2024 including some new details about the upcoming horror game Cutter head and the announcement of the first piece of new expansion content for the Super Alan Wake2.
The Nocturnal springs expansion will contain three episodes each, centered around alternate versions of characters from Alan Wake2 or other titles from developer Remedy Entertainment. This also includes the arrival of Jesse Faden, the main character of Checkwho we see fighting shadowy creatures in a twisted version of Bright Falls.
Best of all, you won’t have to wait long for the expansion, as it will be available tomorrow (June 8, 2024). It is included as part of the Alan Wake2 deluxe edition or the Luxury upgrade if you already own the base game. The expansion’s arrival coincides with the announcement of new physical editions of both the standard and deluxe versions of the game, which is fantastic news for collectors eager to get their hands on a tangible version of the previously digital-only release.
We were big fans of the base game in our Alan Wake2 review when it came out last October called it a “once-in-a-generation scarefest” and praised the beautiful art direction and thought-provoking story. It’s currently at the top of our guide to the best horror games and if you like creepy games but haven’t yet experienced it for yourself, the impending arrival of this DLC means now could be the perfect time.
Alan Wake2 is currently available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC.
