In Alan Wake 2, the lead writer is trying to escape the Dark Place, an altered, nightmarish version of New York, by writing page after page of various escape attempts. And some of those stories are set in… Night Springs.
Night Springs… a fictional town, full of thrills and whimsy, where the familiar becomes strange. Night Springs… a TV show that Alan Wake once wrote. Night Springs… the first expansion for Alan Wake 2, Remedy Entertainment’s award-winning survival horror title, launches tomorrow, June 8, on PlayStation 5!
In three self-contained episodes, the Night Springs expansion presents three ways Alan Wake tries to find a way out of the endless loop of the Dark Place. You will play as three characters from the world of Alan Wake.
While they may seem familiar at first glance, they are echoes of Night Springs itself, archetypes based on characters players have already met.
Put yourself in the shoes of Number One Fan, who bears a striking resemblance to waitress Rose Marigold and fights the darkness in pursuit of truth and love with your trusty shotgun at your side. As the Actor, who may be known as “Shawn Ashmore” in some realities and “Sheriff Timothy Breaker” in others, you will take on the mantle of the Time Breaker cheat and defeat the evil that is hunting you. And in the episode North Star, unravel the mysteries of coffee and the mysteries of space caffeine as the Siblings, who may seem familiar to those who know Jesse Faden, director of the Bureau Federal Control.
In Night Springs, players will fight and find their way through familiar but transformed locations. Expect more dream logic, twists that only a sci-fi adventure written by Alan Wake can provide, and even more experimentation with different types of media, like video games playable and comic.

In the game’s story, Alan’s wife, Alice Wake, is a photographer and as such, Alan Wake 2’s Photo Mode settings – such as f-stop, focus, etc. – were taken from The art of photography and the use of photographic values.
As a team, we’ve learned a lot from developing photo mode for Control, and so we’re excited to be able to offer players new features in Alan’s Photo Mode Wake 2. Now you can experiment with lighting and use several types of lighting such as spotlights, in-game flashlights and of course the classic and inevitable camera flash. This gives all your virtual photographers the tools to create photos that can have a dramatically different mood and look similar to the aesthetics of what you see in the game.
