Alan Wake 2 Lake House Expansion Release Date Arrives Before Halloween
Alan Wake 2 was previously announced to be expanded on in the form of two expansions, one of which–the genre-bending Night Springs expansion–launched in June. Now, from the virtual stage of the September 2024 State of Play, we know when to expect the second part of that announcement. The Lake House expansion arrives in October, though no exact date was yet mentioned.
The Night Springs expansion is centered around a Federal Bureau of Control research center that was set up and subsequently fell into disarray and gated off from the rest of Bright Falls before the events of Alan Wake 2. Several in-game notes and bits of dialogue hint about what happened there, though it’s currently one of several lingering mysteries its obsessive community is waiting to understand.
Judging by the trailer, this could be the darkest chapter of Alan Wake 2 yet, which makes its pre-Halloween launch date well-timed.
