We were all anxiously awaiting news on the Alan Wake 2 expansion, Night Springs, when Summer Game Fest started. Now, we know it will launch tomorrow on consoles and PC.
Here is the reveal:
More details on Night Springs were shared over at PlayStation.Blog. The first expansion for Alan Wake 2 brings three new episodes featuring familiar characters. Play as Jesse Faden from Control, the waitress Rose Marigold, and sheriff Tim Breaker. They are a little different, as they are Night Springs versions of themselves, so they are known as the Sibling, the Number One Fan, and the Actor, respectively. The Actor is seemingly the most meta of the three, as he is also known as the actual actor portraying him/Tim Breaker, Shawn Ashmore.
Night Springs will be available with the Alan Wake 2 Expansion Pass, which is included in both the digital Deluxe Edition and the upcoming physical Deluxe and Collector’s Editions of Alan Wake 2. You can pre-order the physical editions starting tomorrow, June 8. They are trying to make me buy the game twice, I swear.
In addition, Photo Mode will be released tomorrow for free. A second expansion, The Lake House, is due later this year.
