Fortnite Offers Players a Recap of Alan Wake’s Horror Series Ahead of Alan Wake 2 Release

Epic Games Presents Alan Wake: Flashback, a 20-Minute Interactive Recap to Prepare Fortnite Players for Alan Wake 2 Launching This Month

In anticipation of the upcoming release of Alan Wake 2 later this month, Epic Games is providing Fortnite players with a valuable opportunity to revisit the spine-tingling world of this survival horror game. Now available to play, Alan Wake: Flashback is a 20-minute interactive experience that serves as a concise explainer of the events that have unfolded in the Alan Wake series thus far. This initiative ensures that players are well-prepared to immerse themselves in the chilling universe of Alan Wake 2, scheduled to launch on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on October 27.

For those who may have forgotten the details of Alan’s initial journey into the realm of terror, it’s important to note that the original Alan Wake game was released all the way back in 2010. Alan Wake: Flashback acts as a reimagining of this first tale, where Alan embarks on a seemingly peaceful work holiday with his wife, Alice, in the picturesque town of Bright Falls in the Pacific Northwest. However, the tranquility is short-lived, as players quickly find themselves confronting axe-wielding monstrosities in the dead of night.
