Two Alan Wake 2 physical editions of the game are coming to shelves this year: a Physical Deluxe Edition for $79.99 / €79.99 / £64.99 which includes the base game, as well as all Digital Deluxe Edition items that include cosmetic items for Alan and Saga, an expansion pass for the two DLCs, and a code for Alan Wake Remastered Digital Edition. There’s also an Alan Wake 2 Limited Collector’s Edition –created by the folks over at Limited Run. Set to retail for $199.99, this massive pack includes everything in the Physical Deluxe Edition along with an exclusive Collector’s Edition box, Alan Wake’s Angel Lamp replica (functional with a light), Ocean View Hotel keychain and key (room 665), Coffee World pin set, and an artbook.
Given that Alan Wake 2 is one of thebest Remedy gamesthe studio has created, it’s great that it’s going to land in a physical format to help ensure its longevity into the future – it’s funny to think that the journey to get this sequel off the ground after 13 years was kickstarted after Remedy acquired the IP rights to the franchise fromMicrosoftGaming, following the original being temporarily pulled from the Xbox Store due to lapsed music licenses. Anyway, if any of you need me I’ll be trying to justify how I can carve $200 out of my bank balance for that Collector’s Edition… I probably don’t need electricity when I’ve got Alan’s Angel Lamp to light my way.
