Remedy creative director Sam Lake has said that he’d like to make a “crazy, huge-budget, dark gothic fantasy” game.
Fortnite recruits Alan Wake, Michael Myers and Jack Skellington for Halloween
10.10.2023 - 12:55 / eurogamer.net / Michael Myers / Tim Burton / Sam Lake / Alan Wake / Jack Skellington
Fortnite's annual Halloween extravaganza is back for another year, and this time the battle royale has roped in a few more famous friends.
Remedy's very own Alan Wake will be available to buy as a skin later in the event, presumably timed alongside the launch of the long-awaited Alan Wake 2 (that's due on 27th October).
Jack Skellington from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas is also joining Fortnite — I like that he also has his Santa Jack costume as well — alongside Halloween's Michael Myers.
On the Island itself, a smattering of changes: some new and returning weapons (including the Pumpkin Launcher and Witch's Broom), plus the return of Fortnite's fan-favourite Horde Rush mode, which lets you take down waves of Cube Monsters as part of a squad.
Oh, and there's a creepy new Fishstick variant named Bogstick, who looks like nightmare fuel.
Fortnite is also pushing on with its ongoing seasonal questline, which concerns a vampire mob boss named Kado Thorne taking over parts of the Island. Leaks suggest the coming weeks will see Thorne's time machine come into play — and the return of a familiar face from Fortnite's overall story — as this Chapter and Island map both head towards their year anniversary.
If you're keen to find out more about Alan Wake, our Bertie is talking to Remedy boss Sam Lake this week ahead of EGX 2023 — and you can submit your burning questions now.

Alan Wake 2: How To Get All Words of Power | Dark Place & Subway
Instead of finding Manuscript Fragments for upgrades, the eponymous character will need to find Words of Power in Alan Wake 2. These Words of Power locations allow Alan to upgrade himself in multiple different special character trees. Each upgrade increases his strength in a different way — you can deal more damage, enhance your health, or make your weapons more powerful. It all depends on those Words of Power.

How Remedy Created Alan Wake 2's Horrifying Game Over Screen
A good game over screen doesn’t just serve as a notice that you need to start over. In the survival horror genre, a well-crafted, properly terrifying game over screen should serve as a deterrent, ensuring you stay alive the next time to avoid seeing the bloody words ‘Game Over’ appear on your screen. And sometimes, like in Alan Wake 2, they could be so terrifying you never want to die again.

Alan Wake 2 New Game+ and DLC plans include what can only be a Control crossover
You haven't even downloaded Remedy's Alan Wake 2 yet, assuming you're planning to, which means it's already time to start thinking about what you'll do once you've finished it. Apologies, the news beat is a cruel mistress and the present is always past, but in my defence, jumping irresponsibly around the timeline does make sense for a supernatural horror game that follows two characters through different dimensions.
