The third and final reason is that Remedy didn’t want to ship a physical version that would still require a digital download, like some modern games do. For the record, Alan Wake 2’s standard edition costs £39.99 on PC and £49.99 on consoles.Ī deluxe edition that comes with an expansion pass and some extra cosmetics is being sold for £54.99 on PC and £64.99 on consoles.

Not to mention the industry is unsubtly trying to drag us into an all-digital future with Sony and Microsoft’s current consoles offering cheaper digital-only hardware. First is the uncomfortable truth that more and more people are moving towards buying their games digitally.
There are also no plans for a physical release, so this isn’t a Metroid Prime Remastered situation where it’ll launch digitally first and then as a boxed release later on.Īs for why this is the case, Remedy’s reasons are threefold.
