For some time now there have been rumors that a previously unannounced remastered version of Alan Wake is being worked on. The databases of the Epic Games Store are providing fresh speculation these days and have listed Alan Wake Remastered and Final Fantasy VII for PC.
Alan Wake Remastered and Final Fantasy VII Remake coming to PC?
As early as the summer of 2019 we heard the rumor that Remedy Entertainment was working on a remastered version of Alan Wake. This should be at the development studio Virtuous for the current generation consoles.
While Virtuos and Remedy Entertainment continue to hide in silence, the references to the new edition could currently intensify. In the meantime, Alan Wake Remastered and Final Fantasy VII Remake appeared in the databases of the Epic Games Store for PC.
We shouldn’t understand the whole thing as the official announcement of Alan Wake Remastered, but a few months ago Remedy Entertainment announced a collaboration with Epic Games, which will result in various projects.
It would be conceivable that the remastered version of the mystery thriller originally published in 2010 could also be found among them.
In the past, rumors were not limited to a remastered version of the original Alan Wake. Instead, the Gamesbeat editor James Grubb, who is considered a reliable insider source, noted in early April that Remedy Entertainment is also working on a successor in the form of Alan Wake 2, which was conceived as a multi-platform project from the start.
The work on the sequel has not yet been officially confirmed.
