With Alan Wake 2 coming as soon as tomorrow for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S players, Remedy has announced that sometime after release, the game will be getting a New Game+ mode that allows you to retain all of your weapons and upgrades and to experience an alternative narrative with new Manuscript pages and video content on a harder, Nightmare-level difficulty option.

Remedy has not yet stated when exactly this feature will be arriving following the launch of the game, but the developer has announced the three difficulty options that will be available in the launch version.

Players can experience the story from minute one on either:


Story - Combat will not pose a challenge. Focus on mystery-solving and exploration.
Normal - A balance between mystery-solving and survival. Combat is challenging and conserving resources is required to stay alive.
Hard - Significantly challenging combat. Leveraging items and familiarity with the game mechanics is essential for survival.


Will you be playing Alan Wake 2 tomorrow?
