Alan Wake 2 is here, and as you would expect from a survival horror game, particularly one developed by the twisted minds at Remedy Entertainment, the game is packed with secrets to uncover for those willing to stray a bit off the beaten path.
Note: The following article contains some non-story SPOILERS.
While Alan Wake 2 gives its two heroes a basic pistol by default, there are a number of more useful weapons that can be optionally acquired, although all of them require a bit of puzzle-solving to get your hands on. Alan Wake himself doesn’t have quite the same arsenal as co-protagonist Saga Anderson, but he does have a couple of optional tools at his disposal, including a flare gun and a double-barreled shotgun. Here’s how to acquire all of Alan’s weapons so you can go into the darkness feeling prepared…
This one is basically impossible to miss. You pick it up on the table next the typewriter in order to progress through the level.
Note: You get access to the double-barreled shotgun earlier in the game automatically, but if you want access to it within the Dark Place, you’ll need to go out of your way to get it.
Head up to the rooftop entrance to the Oceanview Hotel, and you’ll find a shuttered bar nearby. Go near the bar an use your Angel Lamp, and you’ll be able to go behind the bar.
Use the Angel Lamp again once you’re behind the bar you’ll see a case with the double-barreled shotgun. And hey, as a bonus, you don’t need to input any combination to get it!
And there you have it! All of Alan’s weapons are now yours. Ammo for some of these weapons is fairly limited, but they can really shred enemies compared to your basic pistol, so they’re worth tracking down.
Alan Wake 2 can be played on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5. You can check out more of Wccftech’s Alan Wake 2 guides here.

Twelve Deer Heads are found across all the regions you can explore in , offering a rare collection of rewards for those who discover each location of these trophies.

Remedy Entertainment's revival of Alan Wake sees the developer bring back its winding, complex game about horror storytelling in a bold new way. Along with the return of the troubled, reality-bending writer, a new protagonist named Saga Anderson enters the horrifying and supernatural fray. But Saga's unique place in the main story pushed the developers to come up with a compelling way to structure the game's parallel stories and how best to portray the newest character.
Alan Wake 2 is here, and as you would expect from a survival horror game, it throws some fairly tough challenges at you, including a number of boss fights.
Alan Wake 2 is a mindf***.
The release of has been met with wide approval, praised for its strong storytelling and creepy atmosphere. Naturally, as a sequel to a game made in 2010, many wonder whether experience with the previous entries in the franchise is necessary to play or understand. Like many sequels, the story of directly follows the events of the first game, but the question of whether it's required to play other Remedy Entertainment games like is a bit more nuanced than a yes or no answer.
Foe Robert Nightingale returns in as a boss that you will have to beat fairly early. Unlike the first game, he is no longer a Federal Agent but still stalks Alan and Saga during the adventure. Nightingale has been murdered by the Cult of the Tree and turned into a dark apparition.

Released in Fall 2023, Remedy Entertainment and Epic Games Publishing's phenomenal survival horror game is a horror tour de force. Like many games, features a number of collectible items as well as trophies for satisfying certain criteria. While many of the game's achievements cannot be missed, or can at least be completed at the player's leisure, a number are time-sensitive and can all too easily be overlooked or neglected.
Remedy Entertainment and Epic Games Publishing's survival horror game has an incredibly restricted number of weapons to choose from — though this may sound like a negative, it is thematically appropriate and only furthers the need to carefully select which weapons to carry. Moreover, as the game has two protagonists with unique firearm arsenals, the number of weapons available at any one time is yet further limited — Sage has five guns to choose from, and Alan has only three. While all the guns can be useful in the right circumstances, some are far superior when compared with others.
