After rumors of an Alan Wake game being available for PC emerged yesterday amidst the findings of game files in Steam, Remedy Entertainment has officially announced the release.
"Coming in early 2012, the game will give PC gamers the Alan Wake experience they have been patiently waiting for," they announced in a press release today. "Remedy is a developer with deep roots in the PC space (Death Rally and Max Payne 1 and 2), so the game will have the high resolution polish that longtime fans will expect."
The PC version of Alan Wake will also include The Signal and The Writer DLC.
Alan Wake tells the story of a best-selling writer suffering from writer’s block. He goes on vacation to the small town of Bright Falls with his wife, Alice, to gain back his creative flow. Shortly upon arrival, Wake finds himself trapped in a nightmare when his wife mysteriously goes missing. He keeps finding pages of a manuscript he apparently wrote, but can’t remember writing. The manuscript is coming true. An involving psychological action thriller, Alan Wake raises the bar in storytelling and creating a suspenseful cinematic experience.
