Alan Wake 2: Night Springs DLC Review



Alan Wake 2: Night Springs DLC reviewed by Tristan Ogilvie on PC. Also available on PlayStation, Xbox, and GeForce Now.

“Alan Wake 2: Night Springs is a compact collection of standalone stories that veer from entertainingly violent shootouts, to tense stretches of survival horror, before settling on and reveling in the utterly batshit craziness that makes Remedy’s multiverse of madness so keenly absorbing to explore. There’s admittedly not much new here from a gameplay perspective, and it feels like a bit of a tease to play as a version of Control’s heroine stripped of her special abilities in the second episode. Even so, the highs I felt during my short return to Alan Wake’s universe greatly outweighed the lows, and I’d gladly play through another collection of bite-sized side stories if Remedy ever decided to bake another batch. Could there be more Night Springs in the future? Hope springs eternal.”

Ok, the Jesse DLC episode is QUITE OBVIOUSLY supposed to fall in a time before she makes it to the FBC. She repeatedly remarks that she is looking for Dylan. Why would she already have the service weapon or any of her abilities, and in what universe is that a fair critique of the episode? It makes me wonder if the author of this critique played the episode at all, or instead just listened to some other reviews to try and get the gist…

Someone be brutally honest to me:

Is Alan Wake's story continued and finished after this sequel? Or is it all just sold as an alan wake game, but hardly actually that.

okay but can I use the FBI jacket throughout the whole game now?

Jesse is such a poor character that she is the worst part of another games DLC 😭🤣

So it's Alan wake American nightmare

WARNING THIS REVIEW IS FULL OF SPOILERS

Much like the main game, this is all just a waste of time. It’s pretty looking though…so so pretty.

Ep 1 and 2 were really cool, but ep 3... dude that was ABSOLUTE VIDEOGAME
@GTR72 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
Finished the whole thing in one sitting. Kind of wish they would stick to one of the 3 stories and made it a bigger experience. They're all kind of short, felt like a game play demo with a player skin on top.

Bro wanted Remedy to insert entire new gameplay mechanics into some free DLC just because he didn't understand that this wasn't the same Jesse as the one in Control.

It’s not an 8, it’s a loop.

Strong Twin Peaks vibes with Rose’s episode ☕️ 🥧

Alan Wake is the only game you can’t get mad about a reviewer messing up the details for. The lore is so insane that it’s impossible for anyone to know and explain it in a reasonably long manner.
@iurilima6674 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
2 hours gameplay the dlc he said?
@Look-at-the-ghost October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
PHYSICAL alan wake 2 are available for pre order right now!!!!!! Support the physical like a true gamer.
@Donjuan77 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
Anyone else think Alan Wake 2 was extremely overrated?
@mratliffjr0001 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
Episode 3 was incredible. It alone was worth the price of admission.
@BruceLee-kf7rl October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
This game is evidence that many game developers are just wannabe Hollywood filmmakers.

Ign is smoking something ,this is 5 at best
@sectumsempra712 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
The glaring misunderstanding in this review is that you're NOT playing as Rose Marigold, Jesse Faden, and Tim Breaker - you are playing as actors in a TV show, written by Alan Wake, who all have the LIKENESS of Rose Marigold, Jesse Faden, and Tim Breaker. That's why they are not referred to with character names but as "Number One Fan" for Rose, "The Agent" for Jesse, etc. - why Alan Wake's character is referred to as "The Writer." So that's why you don't get Jesse's superpowers or service weapon - Jesse gets those when she goes to find her brother at the FBC. Since this is not her, and she hasn't done that, she doesn't get those in this DLC.
@AwesomeNick94 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
Was the blood splatter onto the screen in the original game? Seems like it would be annoying
@danielsurgan8490 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
Dear OP, kindly refrain from spamming alliteration in the future. It pains me to know an even more deserving legless and prosaic hack is out there who being deprived of their crutch.

*EDIT an unnecessary redundancy (which is a something audiences usually find grating)
@VanceProduces October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
The ONLY thing that bothered me about Alan Wake 2 was Alan's CONSTANT and INCESSANT acting aloof. Literally every scene he's in he's over-acting his confused and aloof reaction to the world he's found himself in. I'm playing like "yes, Alan... it's scaaaaary, confusing, and gasp unfamiliar! OH NO!"
@SolidRaiden2655 October 29, 2024 - 3:20 am
American Nightmare better
