Epic Games and developer Remedy Entertainment have released a new “Behind the Scenes” developer diary for Alan Wake 2. The video introduces the new character Saga Anderson. Saga is a FBI agent who’s new to the Pacific Northwest Bright Falls area and is on the trail of a recent string of mysterious murders. She also serves as the second playable character of Alan Wake II, alongside the returning protagonist Alan Wake. Alan Wake 2 will launch on October 17 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Epic Games Store.
Recent details about the character via Remedy:
The trailer introduces Saga Anderson (played by Melanie Liburd – This is Us, Bad Boys 4, Game of Thrones), an accomplished FBI agent with a reputation for solving impossible cases, who arrives to investigate murders in the small town community of Bright Falls in the Pacific Northwest. Anderson’s case spirals into a nightmare when she discovers pages of a horror story that starts to come true and questions how it may be connected to missing writer Alan Wake, whose own dark story eerily mirrors her own.
Alan Wake 2 pushes players into a psychological horror story from the perspective of two playable characters. Saga Anderson risks her life to solve a deadly mystery of murders in the Pacific Northwest while Alan Wake attempts to rewrite his reality to escape the depths of the Dark Place, a nightmare version of New York City.
Taking full advantage of the power of current consoles and PC, and driven by Remedy Entertainment’s proprietary Northlight engine, players will take on powerful supernatural enemies in desperate situations filled with intense suspense and unexpected twists. Anderson and Wake are two heroes on two desperate journeys in two separate realities, connected at heart in ways neither of them can understand.
