Alan Wake 2 Delayed to Dodge Clash with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Remedy's Smart Move to Avoid October Gaming Blitz

In a strategic move, Remedy Entertainment’s creative director, Sam Lake, has unveiled the reason behind the intentional delay of Alan Wake 2, ensuring it didn’t collide with the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Earlier in August, Remedy made waves by shifting the game’s release date from October 17 to October 27. This move wasn’t driven by last-minute polish for the highly-anticipated horror sequel but was motivated by the congested gaming lineup for this month.
