The sequel is not coming out of the blue. Alan Wake was first released for the Xbox 360 in 2010, but has received a lot of attention in recent years. There were references to the game in Control and its expansions, and a remastered version was released for multiple platforms back in October. The second game in the franchise was confirmed by Remedy to be part of a smaller publishing deal that would include two games in the same franchise.
