Thomas Puha (Remedy): There were a few reasons, but thank you for saying that the game was already visually quite cutting-edge back in 2012! We agree and that was partly why it was challenging to create the Remaster, because the old graphics on PC hold up pretty well to this day. TechPowerUp: Why Alan Wake? What was the thought behind remastering this title for today? Do you feel the title was under-appreciated when it came out? It was visually pretty cutting-edge for 2012 already? Developing this is game studio d3t, while Epic Games is the publisher, who very kindly gave us a chance to interact with Andy Booth, Studio Technical Director, d3t, and Thomas Puha, Communications Director of Remedy Entertainment, on the technical aspects of the remaster. Remedy Entertainment decided to wipe the dust off the title, and remaster it for the current generation. When it came out in Spring 2012, Alan Wake-then exclusive to the Xbox 360 and Windows PC-was already considered path-breaking in terms of its visual splendour, however, it was limited to the technology of the time, and more importantly, to just a couple of platforms. Following her mysterious disappearance, Wake finds events from his unfinished novel coming to life, including its many horrors.

You play as title character Alan Wake, a writer struggling with writer's block, out on holiday in the Pacific Northwest with his wife. Much like other smash-hit personality-based action titles by Remedy Entertainment, such as Max Payne (of the old), Quantum Break, and Control Alan Wake is as much a literary experience as it is a challenging action game. Alan Wake Remastered brings the magic of Alan Wake back in a gorgeous-looking AAA title for this generation.
